"Crystal Edo Kiriko" is a vessel made from purely domestic crystal glass, which is highly cut by a traditional craftsman to maximize its transparency and shine.

This is a very auspicious piece with the motif of Katsushika Hokusai's masterpiece ``Greek Wind and Clear Weather'' from his masterpiece ``Thirty-six Views of Mt.
