Shibuichi Sake Cups

Description

These sake cups are hand fabricated from a shibuichi (25% silver to 75% copper alloy) billet I casted. I depletion guilded them and then sanded some off the hammered surface to show the schibuichi peach color on the outside of each cup.

The cups sit in a cast coper base that is elevated by transparent hand pulled glass rods. The base is found wood with model railroad foliage.

They look awesome. And there are people who say practical things can't be art?!
