Adorned with small, delicate wings along its rim, this glass bowl takes on the charming look of a little bird, bringing a gentle touch of Japanese craft to your table. A soft stream of fine bubbles floats through the glass like the Milky Way, catching the light from every angle. Crafted by artisan Maki Nakamura at Maki Glass Studio in Kyoto, each bowl is individually free-blown, giving it its own warm, organic character.
It's wonderfully suited for chilled vegetable soups, fresh fruit, or summer desserts, letting the vivid colors of your food shine through the clear glass. Measuring roughly 11.5 to 12.0 cm in diameter (up to 15.0 cm wide including the wings) and 6.5 to 7.0 cm tall, it holds about 200 ml at 80 percent capacity, making it a reliable favorite for daily meals or special gatherings.
Because each piece is individually handmade from craft glass, slight variations in shape, size, weight (around 222 g), bubble placement, and minor tool marks are natural signatures of the artist's work. Please note that this glass is not heat-resistant. To preserve its beauty, avoid using it in microwaves, dishwashers, ovens, or freezers, and keep it away from direct flames and rapid temperature changes.
