This refined wooden sake vessel is handcrafted from Okusugi cedar, a rare ancient cedar originating from Yakushima Island, Japan—a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site.
 
 Okusugi is closely related to Yakusugi (Yakushima cedar) and is sourced exclusively from old, naturally fallen or historical timber, ensuring that no new trees are harvested. Each vessel embodies a deep respect for nature and time, reflecting the sustainable values embraced by Echo of Hippocampus.
 
Perfectly melding art, heritage, and function, it complements our curated selection of vintage Japanese crafts and timeless artefacts. This piece invites you to experience a meaningful connection to Japan’s natural and cultural legacy.
