KISSUL Colored Urushi

About KISSUL Colored Urushi

Introducing the new series of lacquer tumblers, featuring traditional Japanese colors, born from the combination of vacuum insulation technology and lacquer techniques. Available in four elegant colors: White Tea, Purple Navy, Indigo, and Black Green. These exquisite hues are made possible by the meticulous color mixing technology of Sato Kiyomatsu Shoten, which offers over 100 color variations. The unique patterns and baking irregularities of the lacquer, a characteristic of handcrafted lacquerware, enhance the individuality and charm of each piece.

Vacuum Lacquer KISSUL

Developed in collaboration with the long-established Kyoto lacquer shop “Sato Kiyomatsu Shoten,” these stainless steel tumblers apply traditional Japanese lacquer baking techniques. Named “KISSUL” to emphasize the value of communication between the maker and the user through shared enjoyment, these tumblers offer a hybrid of “lacquer” and “vacuum insulation technology.” They provide excellent thermal insulation while also featuring the gentle mouthfeel and natural antibacterial properties unique to lacquer. Durable and dishwasher safe, these tumblers can be repaired with lacquer if scratched, ensuring long-lasting use.
