Description
The Blue Orbit Edo Kiriko Whiskey Glass is a striking crystal tumbler defined by vivid cobalt blue color, crisp hand-cut detailing, and a distinctive circular motif.
Its design features orbit-inspired blue circular cuts set within clear crystal panels, framed by elongated faceted lines and sharp geometric detailing. The deep blue rim adds a bold visual anchor, while the transparent crystal cuts create brightness, contrast, and a refined sense of depth.
With a 7.4 fl oz capacity and a solid 8.7 oz weight, this tumbler is well suited for whiskey, bourbon, neat pours, cocktails, or premium home bar display. The balance of deep blue color and clear hand-cut crystal makes it both decorative and functional, ideal for gifting or collecting.
Each glass is individually hand-cut, so slight variations may appear between pieces. These subtle differences are part of the character of handcrafted crystal glass and make every piece unique.
The Craft, in Four Steps
Design Drafting
Each pattern is drawn by hand, mapping how light will travel through every facet.
Initial Cutting
Diamond wheels carve the primary facets. One wrong angle and the piece is lost.
Fine Adjustment
Each facet is refined by hand. Depth, edge, angle - adjusted until geometry becomes art.
Final Polishing
Progressive abrasives bring out optical clarity. Light passes through without distortion.
Why Optical-Grade Crystal?
Our crystal isn't just "glass." It's optical-grade borosilicate - the same material used in telescope lenses and camera prisms, chosen for its extraordinary clarity and precision.
When we set out to make the perfect whiskey glass, we didn't start with tradition. We started with a question: What if the same crystal that helps us see the stars could hold the amber glow of your favorite whiskey?
The result is a glass with >92% light transmission - higher than traditional lead crystal - and a hardness that allows for incredibly precise hand-cut facets. It's lighter than lead crystal, yet more durable and chemically stable.
This isn't a cheaper alternative to crystal. It's a better one.

| Refractive Index | High | High | Low |
| Lead Content | Lead-free | 24%+ | 0% |
