Ensai Whiskey Rock Cup #4

This whiskey rock cup by Asato Ikeda is a sculptural piece from his Ensai series, defined by expressive folds and ridges that wrap naturally around the form. Its deep blue glaze moves between violet, amber, and soft ash tones, creating a moody, dusk-like atmosphere. The interior pools into a darker, reflective surface, offering a quiet contrast to the dynamic exterior. With its rounded base and slightly asymmetric lip, the cup rests comfortably in the hand, making each sip of whiskey—or tea—feel intentional. Characterful and richly textured, it reflects Ikeda’s ability to blend tradition with contemporary artistry. This is one-of-a-kind.
