Kiriko 切子 glass is a beautiful Japanese artisanal glass craft with carefully applied cuts, often in intricate patterns. Within Kiriko, the traditions of Edo-kiriko 江戸切子 and Satsuma-kiriko 薩摩切子 are the most famous. The cuts create beautiful patterns, making the glasses look like jewels. Drinking sake from such glasses heightens your experience and enjoyment.

However, as gorgeous as they are to behold and drink from, one of the downsides of owning such delicate glassware is that they need to be handled with care. Many people worry about scratching them or shattering them if they are bumped or dropped. Moreover, tourists may be wary of buying them out of concern that something may happen to them on their way back from their travels to Japan or when shipped internationally.

If you have held back from buying kiriko glasses for such reasons, we have the perfect solution for you. Here are kiriko-style glasses that won't break even if you drop them!

Looks like the real thing! The secret behind unbreakable Kiriko

"Yawaraka Glass: Kiriko" has a beautiful pattern on the bottom as if you were looking through a kaleidoscope. But what exactly does "unbreakable" mean?

"Are you sure it won't break if I drop it?" you ask.

If you don't believe us, seeing is believing:

"It bounced off the table?!"

The glasses are actually made of high-performance silicone. Even if you drop them from high up, they will not break. If you stack them up roughly or bump them together, they won't even get scratched, let alone shatter.

These surprising Kiriko glasses are so malleable that their sides will bend inwards when you apply pressure but sturdy enough that they'll keep their shape if you hold them normally.
