Vertical Cut Glass Tumbler

This hand-cut tumbler by Haruya Hiroshima is crafted from high-clarity artisan glass, selected for its purity and delicate brilliance. A series of vertical cuts run down its surface—each line engraved by hand using a diamond-tipped tool, echoing the quiet rhythm of falling rain. The base, cut into sharp ridges, refracts light with a subtle glow, as if the glass is holding not just liquid, but light itself.

Working from his studio in Kanazawa, Hiroshima is known for his calm, precise approach to cut glass. He chooses only premium glass blanks, and polishes each piece by hand at least five times. His belief that “a vessel is a container of time” is etched into every object he makes—pieces that are neither ornamental nor ordinary, but quietly poetic. Hiroshima’s works invite a pause, a breath, a closer look. They are glassware made not for display, but for presence.
