06 Bottle Sumi (Gray) A

An individual with straight and orthodox proportions.

Glass explodes beauty when liquid enters. This is especially true for cylindrical or spherical works like this. When filled with liquid, the glass itself acts as a lens, refracting light inside and pleasing our eyes.

This bottle has an elegant long body and a spigot with a spherical object that is geometric and intelligent. This sphere is made by blowing it round with a blowing rod, picking it up with a ponte rod, and adding melted and soft glass.

If you put it on the dining table, it will tighten at once. Wine is of course, but please put water in it. Even plain water looks mesmerizingly beautiful. A bottle with a very high existence value, where the gesture of opening the stopper and pouring into a glass is also attractive.

Even in direct sunlight, it is dignified and beautiful, and even in the shadows, it emits a complex light. A versatile player who combines practicality and art.
