Edo Kiriko Midnight Motif Hand-Cut Whisky Glass

A glass for the deepest hour of the night. the Edo Kiriko Handcrafted Midnight Motif Whisky Glass renders the quiet beauty of the midnight sky into hand-cut crystal. A deep. velvety body holds the depth of starless midnight. while intricately carved patterns shimmer through it like distant constellations — alive only to those still awake to notice them.

Yofuke (夜更け) — The Late Hour

In Japanese. yofuke (夜更け) refers to the deep night — the hour after midnight when the world quiets. when most have gone to sleep. and when the few still awake find a different kind of clarity. Poets. monks. artists. and thinkers have long treasured this hour for its uninterrupted stillness. To pour a slow drink into this glass at midnight is to honor that quiet. productive solitude — the kind of hour that does not announce itself but deepens with each passing minute.

Cuts That Catch the Stillness

The body of the glass is etched with detailed geometric patterns hand-cut by skilled artisans. each line shaped against a spinning wheel through tens of thousands of careful strokes. The dense. multi-directional cutting catches what little light is available — a candle. a single lamp. the glow of a screen — and returns it in a quiet shimmer. Like the stars overhead at midnight: present. patient. never seeking attention.

Hand-Cut Through Patient Tradition

The lead-free crystal carries its substantial 350 g weight with grounded authority. The 300 ml capacity is suited for whisky neat. on the rocks with a large ice sphere. or a slow pour of any aged spirit you intend to consider at length.

Perfect For

Single Malt Scotch. Bourbon. Japanese whisky. and aged spirits served neat or on the rocks. A particularly thoughtful gift for night owls — writers. programmers. artists. scholars. and anyone whose best work happens after the world has gone to sleep. Also a quiet pleasure for those who treat their late-evening pour as a small ritual of solitude and reflection.
