🍶 History

Sakazuki are vessels for drinking sake; more narrowly, the term refers to shallow, spreading, footed cups associated with ceremonial drinking. During the late Edo period, porcelain cups became increasingly common, especially for informal drinking, alongside older earthenware and lacquered forms. Ichinokura, now part of Tajimi in Gifu Prefecture, developed into a specialist center for sakazuki production. Beyond everyday drinking, sakazuki retain a ceremonial role in Japanese weddings. In san-san-kudo, the bride and groom share sake using three cups, expressing their union and the joining of their families.

This Japanese-made sakazuki is identified as a traditional sake vessel and a commemorative keepsake. Its shallow shape, chrysanthemum motif, and included stand connect its drinking-vessel form with a decorative presentation.
