Pour a cold beer into the pure-copper Kagayaki trio and feel the chill travel quickly through each 3.0" × 5.4" (7.7 × 13.7 cm) tumbler. Gold, silver, and copper finishes give the set distinct character, while the hammered texture feels secure in hand. Made in Tsubame, Japan, it suits beer drinkers seeking a three-piece set for cold drinks.
Why You’ll Love It
Copper construction quickly carries coldness to beer
Hammered texture gives each tumbler a tactile grip
Three finishes make shared beer moments distinctive
Paulownia presentation box makes the trio gift-ready
For the person who appreciates the beauty of a well-made object, the Kagayaki Copper Beer Tumbler Trio offers something worth pausing for: three luminous finishes, the cool touch of copper, and the pleasure of sharing a carefully poured beer.
A gift with a sense of occasion
Presented together in a paulownia box, the gold, silver and copper finishes make a striking ensemble from the moment the lid is lifted. Choose it for a wedding, an anniversary, a milestone birthday or a generous thank-you. It is a thoughtful gift for a beer enthusiast, a discerning host or someone drawn to Japanese design—beautiful to receive, and made to be enjoyed.
Three finishes, each with its own character
Every tumbler has a pure-copper body. The distinction lies in the finish, giving the trio a shared silhouette with three different expressions.
Gold: Gold plating inside and out brings a warm, luminous presence.
Silver: Silver plating inside and out creates a bright, understated contrast.
Copper: The warm copper exterior is paired with a tin-plated interior.
Polished surfaces catch the light, while textured detailing adds depth and a tactile quality. Arranged together, the three finishes make the set feel complete; in use, each person can choose their favourite.
The pleasure of copper, felt in the hand
Pour a cold beer and the conductive copper body quickly takes on its chill. That immediate cool touch is part of the experience: a simple evening drink becomes a small ritual. Designed for cold beverages only, these tumblers are not insulated vessels.
Japanese origin, clearly identified
Produced in Tsubame, Niigata Prefecture, Japan, the set bears the Made in Tsubame certification mark identifying its place of production. Its appeal is in the details—the copper construction, considered finishes and balanced contrast of smooth and textured surfaces.
Inside the box: One gold-plated copper tumbler, one silver-plated copper tumbler and one copper-finish tumbler with a tin-plated interior, presented in a paulownia box.
A distinctive gift. A shared pleasure. An everyday reason to bring something beautiful to the table.

Questions About This Piece
Are these tumblers intended for hot drinks as well as beer?
They are designed for cold drinks only. Copper transfers the chill quickly and helps retain the coldness of the beverage.
A glimpse into Japanese metalworking. Techniques vary by maker and piece.
Japanese metalwork · Material, form & finish
The art of metal. The pleasure of everyday use.
In Japan, metalworking has long brought together practical
purpose and an eye for beauty. From copper shaped with
hammers in Tsubame to vessels cast in Takaoka, regional
traditions have given everyday objects a distinctive character.
A tumbler brings that story close: in the curve of its body,
the feel of its surface and the way its finish catches the
light. Different metals and techniques create different
experiences, making the details of each piece worth discovering.

What makes Japanese metal drinkware distinctive?
Japan’s metalworking regions bring different skills to the
table. Tsubame is known for metal utensils and copperware;
Takaoka has a long casting tradition. Shaping, casting,
polishing and surface finishing each contribute to a
vessel’s character.
The appeal is in the details: the proportions, the rim,
the texture and the finish. The techniques used vary by
maker and product, so the story of the individual piece
matters as much as its place of origin.
What is the difference between the metal and the finish?
The body is the base metal; the finish is its surface treatment.
A copper tumbler, for example, may have a tin-plated
interior or a gold- or silver-plated finish. A gold-coloured
vessel is not necessarily solid gold, and a silver-coloured
vessel is not necessarily solid silver.
Read the body material, interior lining and exterior
finish together. This gives you a clearer picture of
what you are choosing and how to care for it.
Is every tumbler made by hand?
Methods differ. Some vessels are shaped by repeated
hammering; others are cast in moulds or formed with
machinery, sometimes followed by hand finishing.
A textured surface alone does not establish that a
tumbler is hand-hammered.
Look for the specific technique in the product description.
Each method offers its own possibilities for shape,
precision and surface character.
Will it keep my drink cold, and can I use it for hot drinks?
Construction matters as much as the metal.
A single-wall metal tumbler can quickly feel cool when
filled with a chilled drink, but this is different from
the temperature retention of a vacuum-insulated vessel.
Double-wall construction does not automatically mean
vacuum insulation.
Use the temperature guidance for the individual product.
A tumbler marked for cold drinks only should not be used
for hot drinks. Check any restrictions on acidic drinks
or prolonged storage too, as these depend on the lining
and finish.
How do I choose the right size and feel?
Start with your usual drink and serving size, allowing
space for ice or foam. Then compare the height, diameter
and weight: two tumblers with the same capacity can feel
quite different in the hand.
Consider the rim and surface as well. A slender form,
a wider opening and a textured finish each offer a
different experience. Use the dimensions and close-up
photographs to find a piece that suits your daily ritual.
How should I care for the surface and finish?
Follow the maker’s instructions for the exact metal and
finish. Gentle hand washing with a soft sponge and mild
detergent, followed by careful drying, is a sensible
starting point when permitted by those instructions.
Use a dishwasher only when the product is explicitly
described as dishwasher-safe.
Some surfaces change in tone with use; others have a
coating or deliberately aged finish. Avoid abrasive pads
and metal polish unless the maker recommends them, as
they can alter plating or remove an intentional surface
treatment.
