58 Triangular Cup

A cup that would be perfect for appetizers or an aperitif.It is a delightful piece that makes you look forward to thinking about what kind of drink to pair with it.

If you turn over one of Takahashi's cups, you will notice a small "ponte" mark. A ponte is an iron rod attached to the bottom of the cup with a small amount of glass acting as glue in order to widen the mouth of the piece. This charming feature, which can also look like a belly button, is a remnant of the hot-working process and serves as proof of its handmade nature. Mr. Takahashi deliberately leaves this ponte mark, making it a joy to look at the underside of the cup as well.
