Kinto Glassware: Discover the Unique Japanese Approach to Design
There is an enormous range of glassware brands on the market, but only few of them feel instantly familiar in a very welcoming way. One of those designer’s brands, if not the only one, is Kinto.
To let you fully immerse yourself in the moments that count, this Japanese designer appreciates the harmony between usability and beauty. In other words, Kinto creates products that are more than just glasses or teapots to encourage you to take your time and appreciate the beauty of nature as the seasons change.
Moreover, each element of the designer’s most famous Sepia collection incorporates the Japanese design ideas of tatazumai, kokochi, aichaku, and gokan, which are some of the fundamental pillars of Kinto’s design philosophy. This includes the natural warmth of the amber colour and the modest curves of each cup. So, embrace the full experience of eating, drinking, and sharing time with loved ones with these next-level Kinto’s products.
Kinto Day Off Tumbler
Enjoy your favourite drink anytime, anywhere with the robust Kinto Day Off Tumbler designed with convenience and quality in mind. This tumbler is lightweight and portable enough which makes it simple to have hot coffee or cool, refreshing water on hand for hours.
With a vacuum between its inner and outer sides, the tumbler’s double-wall construction prevents heat transfer, allowing hot beverages to stay hotter for longer and cold beverages to stay colder for longer. Your drinks will continue to taste amazing and scrumptious thanks to the premium stainless-steel lining, which has an easy-to-clean design while keeping flavour and scent.
With an impressive 500 ml capacity, it can hold up more than the Kinto To Go Tumbler with only 360 ml. It also comes with a two-stage cap design making it simple to enjoy a variety of liquids. To add ice cubes, just remove the whole cap. Then, twist off the top for spill-proof, natural drinking from any angle.
Given all these features, the Kinto Tumbler is the ideal travel companion to bring with you on hikes, picnics, day trips to the city, and pretty much anywhere else you go because of its comfy, easy-carry design. Moreover, the fact that it is made of sturdy stainless steel and has a scratch-resistant powder coating means it will remain at your side for many adventures to come.
In terms of cleaning and maintenance, the Kinto Day Off Tumbler is not suitable for microwaves, ovens or dishwashers. Therefore, hand-wash it with mild water and detergent to preserve its durability, beauty and function.
Kinto Water Bottle
This modest water bottle is a gorgeous addition to your everyday carry since it is crafted with the same clean, thoughtful design aesthetic that has made Kinto such an international favourite.
The Water Bottle’s lightweight copolyester construction makes it simple to add to your bag or backpack while also making sure it is durable enough to withstand scratches so that the clean, minimalist feel endures. With just a single twist, the lid opens for quick hydration on the go, and the integrated handle makes sweeping up your bottle as you travel from place to place effortless.
Sepia Jug
Everyone who uses the Sepia jug will feel quite comfortable and at ease, as well as a little bit nostalgic thanks to its impressively vintage curving design. The jug’s spout is properly shaped and has a sharper tip at the end, which helps stop liquids from dripping after they have been poured.
This piece stands out and can hold its own even on a busy table thanks the wonderful tinted brown colour. The Sepia jug is ideal for serving both hot and cold beverages because it is made of heat-resistant glass, which can sustain an amazing temperature differential of up to 120 degrees C without cracking. Amazing, right?
Its next level design also makes it simple to scale your beverages by just looking at the measuring lines as it comes with a measurement mark. Moreover, its ability to be stacked with other Sepia collection items is another excellent feature that makes storing easier and quicker than before. The jug is also microwave and dishwasher safe.
Sepia Tumbler
The Sepia tumbler, which was created with both aesthetic appeal and practicality in mind, is the ideal synthesis of form and function. The tumbler’s rich, brown-tinted colour stands out but is still transparent, giving the impression that it isn’t overly heavy or substantial.
Even when there is condensation on the exterior, this glass is exceptionally easy to handle without any concern of dropping it due to the little slant to the edges. The glass’s foot form makes it easy to rest a finger there while sipping, adding to its stability. Furthermore, the strong, resilient glass, and the thick bottom means this tumbler can sustain years of rigorous use without breaking.
Made to stack easily, it’s ideal for saving space in any cabinet or for storing in the open. The thin lip is also enjoyable to drink from and comfy for everyone utilizing it. There are the two sizes available, the 370ml and 270ml one. The item is dishwasher and microwave safe.
Sepia Cup and Saucer
The Sepia Glass Cup and Saucer set by Kinto will infuse your home with a sense of nostalgia. The brown-tinted glass sepia mug can hold 270ml of liquid and is microwaveable and dishwasher safe. It feels cosy and makes for easy carrying thanks to the compact handle. The polished glass cup contrasts with the walnut wood saucer to maximise the designer’s “Tatazumai” philosophy for linger and appearance.
