When it comes to craftsmanship in Japan, most people think about the artisans involved in the traditional crafts: the kimono dyers, sword makers, or ceramists. But the country's vast and age-old traditions have also transferred to modern times, taking everything that is important from the past and transforming it through new materials and tools. The Migakiya Syndicate Double Wall Tumbler is an item born from such a transformation and you won't find a better tribute to Japanese artistry!
Tsubame City in Niigata Prefecture is famous for its metalworking and the Migakiya Syndicate is an association of metalworkers who have taken metal-polishing to an amazing level of perfection. Using 18/8 stainless steel and a unique design utilizing a double-walled structure, they have created in the Migakiya Syndicate Double Wall Tumbler a drinking vessel that holds about 370 ml (12.5 fl oz) of your favorite beverage, hot or cold, without transferring its temperature to your hand and without getting you or the table wet from condensation. Perfect finish and perfect functionality make this tumbler your go-to drinking vessel: over a dozen generations of artisans guarantee it!
