This 1.8-go (approx. 1.8 cup) sake warmer showcases the craftsmanship of Satsuma tinware, a traditional Kagoshima Prefecture craft. ■Design & Functionality: The beautiful white snowflake pattern on the surface further enhances tin's high thermal conductivity. This allows you to instantly prepare hot sake by placing it in a hot water bath, or chill it by dipping it in ice water. The 1.8-go (approx. 1.8 cup) capacity is perfect for both personal sipping and entertaining guests. While the handle is wrapped with a tassel, the body of the tin becomes extremely hot when heated in a hot water bath, so please be careful not to burn yourself. ■Material & History: Tin is the primary material of Satsuma tinware, which has a history of over 300 years. Its excellent antibacterial and durable properties have long made it a popular sake vessel, said to "mellow out the sake" and "prevent the water from spoiling." ■ Special order Feature: The base features a special design with the BEAMS JAPAN logo engraved on it. ■Capacity: 1.8 go

■Care instructions/Precautions for use

*The handle is wrapped in a tassel to prevent it from getting hot, but please be careful not to get burned.
*Do not put in the freezer.
*Tin is a soft metal and may become dented if subjected to a strong impact.
*Do not use on direct flame, in microwave, dishwasher or dryer.
*Tin has a very high thermal conductivity, so if you put hot food in the container, the container itself will become very hot, so please be careful not to get burned. Also, if you put cold food in the container, condensation will easily form, so please be careful not to let water droplets get in.
