Edo Kiriko Hand-Cut K9 Kochō Crystal Whiskey Glass

Named Kochō, the Japanese word for “butterfly,” this Edo Kiriko hand-cut crystal whiskey glass combines fine geometric detail with sweeping, wing-like facets. Radiating cuts extend across the clear crystal like an opening pair of wings, surrounded by intricate traditional Edo Kiriko patterns that break light into smaller, shifting reflections. The fully transparent design keeps the craftsmanship visible from every angle, allowing the depth and precision of the cutting to become the focus. As the glass turns in the hand, broad facets and densely carved sections reflect light at different intensities, creating a layered sense of movement without relying on color. The result is a clear crystal whiskey glass that feels intricate, sculptural, and distinctly Japanese in its approach to pattern and light. Designed for whiskey and aged spirits, Kochō can also be displayed as a decorative piece where the hand-cut structure can be fully appreciated.
