It brings to life the iconic Japanese mountain, Mount Fuji. Mount Hoei was born from a massive eruption in 1707 (Hoei 4) during the mid-Jodo period. The large crater—the Hoei Crater—is modeled after it, and the indentation is designed to perfectly fit the thumb, making it easy to hold the glass. Fuji Sakura (also known as Mame Sakura) is a variety that grows wild on and around Mount Fuji, with five petals in a single layer. The Fuji Sakura, a symbol of Japan just like Mount Fuji, has been carefully cut one petal at a time. The cut glass also provides a non-slip grip when holding the glass.
