Jet-black glass created by skilled craftsmanship
In the manufacturing process, the thickness and expansion of black glass are not visible like transparent glass, so an extremely high level of skill is required to produce such beautiful products. The “Kanazawa” series is a series of pitch-black glassware created by the master skills of craftsmen.

How to care for glass
-
Wash with a mild detergent at the beginning of use.
Avoid using a metal scrubber or cleanser, as they may cause scratches.
-
Use a special cloth when polishing
We recommend frequent polishing with a precious metal cloth.
-
If the surface becomes dull
Dilute acidic citric acid or vinegar with 10 times as much water and wipe off the stain gently with a cloth.
-
If white stains are strong
We recommend using baking soda or oxygen detergent dissolved in a small amount of water.
-
Beware of sudden temperature changes
Soda glass is non-heat resistant and therefore vulnerable to rapid temperature changes, such as boiling hot water or rapid cooling, so care should be taken. Normally, it can be used like pouring a pot of hot water into a room temperature product.
-
Microwave, microwave oven, and dishwasher safe
Please refrain from placing the product directly on fire or using an oven or microwave oven. Hand washing is recommended to prevent breakage.
