[LAUGH WRINKLES Limited Edition Gradient Model]
This is a gradient model from the Rei series of double-walled titanium tumblers, known for their excellent heat and cold insulation.
By creating a gradient with titanium's unique color, you can enjoy its beauty even more.
Titanium, a natural mineral, is a lightweight, durable material that will not break even if dropped.
Based on the concept of our beloved Earth 10 years from now, we collaborated with Laugh Wrinkles (Yotsuya, Tokyo) to create this gradient model, inspired by the sky, sea, forest, and moon.
[Sky]
When we look up from the ground, we can see the irreplaceable sky that stretches above us.
The color of the sky changes over time, from a piercingly clear sky blue to a sunset orange.
The diverse color variations are expressed through the gradient.
[HORIE Double-Walled Titanium]
Founded in 1984 in Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture. HORIE's double-walled titanium tumblers, previously only available at select department stores, are made by double-welding the cup with a special processing technique, creating a layer of air, which acts as an invisible barrier for excellent heat and cold insulation.
Though considered impossible to process and more difficult than stainless steel, HORIE has successfully crafted titanium, achieving an incredibly thin rim of just 0.7mm,
enhancing the tumbler's incredibly smooth sipping experience.
With its vast knowledge and expertise in titanium, HORIE has been active around the world, including designing the monument for the London Olympics.
With the opening of a New York branch in 2019, further growth is anticipated.
[Reasons for choosing titanium]
1. Titanium does not ionize and is tasteless and odorless. Enjoy the natural clarity of both alcohol and water.
2. Titanium is an allergy-free material, making it safe and reliable for anyone to use.
3. Titanium does not rust. It is lightweight and will not break even if dropped hard.
4. It has photo-antibacterial properties, so simply dry it in a place exposed to light to keep it clean.

[Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture: Japan's World-Renowned Metalworking Region]
Niigata Prefecture is known for its rice production, but Tsubame City was plagued by repeated flooding of the Shinano River, necessitating the need for alternative livelihoods.
Fortunately, the region is rich in mineral resources, and charcoal for fuel was easily obtained from the vast forests, leading to a thriving blacksmithing industry.
During the Edo period, nail making was encouraged as a side job for farmers, and demand soared following the Great Fire of Edo, leading to the expansion of the industry.
Demand for nails declined during the Meiji period, and the industry expanded horizontally, applying the techniques of nail making and hammered copperware to produce pipes, files, and Western-style tableware. Made by HORIE, a globally recognized titanium manufacturer founded in 1984.
This limited edition model features a beautiful gradient finish.
Double-layer processing using cutting-edge technology provides excellent heat and cold insulation.
Comes with a beautiful, high-quality paulownia wood box, a popular gift item.
