[The Okinawan Sea, Captured in Glass — Mizukage Bowl S Ryukyu Glass Blue] Made in Japan
■ Product FeaturesRyukyu Glass is a traditional Okinawan craft designated as a traditional craft of Okinawa Prefecture. Originally developed after World War II from recycled glass bottles from the U.S. military, it has evolved into a unique craft tradition characterized by thick walls, a soft color palette, and distinctive bubbles and variations from hand-blown recycled glass.
The blue of Ryukyu Glass evokes the color of the Okinawan sea—from the turquoise near the coast to the deep cobalt offshore, one of Japan's most admired and photographed natural environments, famous for its color gradation. The hand-blowing process brings subtle variations in color depth and pattern, meaning each piece is unique.
The "Mizukage" (Water Shadow) bowl is designed as a versatile vessel—for serving small portions of food, floating flowers (a traditional Japanese ikebana arrangement), or simply as a display piece. The S size is intimate and desk-friendly.
■ Recommended ForCollectors of Okinawan or Japanese craft glass; those who appreciate the beauty of handmade glass with natural variations; those who want to give a beautiful and regionally significant Japanese craft gift; those who want to bring the colors and spirit of Okinawa into their homes; collectors of Japanese traditional crafts.
