An Exceptional Japanese Gift of Artistry, Versatility, and Good Fortune

Why It Makes the Perfect Gift

• Thoughtful & Meaningful Symbolism: Blending sacred color traditions with a prosperity-bringing shape, it conveys deep appreciation and best wishes for lasting happiness.

• Versatile Beyond Beverages: Highly functional not only for cocktail and spirits enthusiasts, but also as an elegant serving bowl for desserts, appetizers, or side dishes.

Auspicious Design Steeped in Japanese Tradition

• The Beauty of "RED & WHITE" (Kouhaku) As the brand name suggests, the exterior showcases the natural reddish hue of pure copper, while the interior is lined with a brilliant white tin coating. In Japan, the combination of red and white (Kouhaku) is a traditional symbol of good fortune, happiness, and celebration.

• The "Fan" Shape (Suehirogaru) When turned upside down, the cup reveals a unique silhouette that widens towards the bottom, resembling an open folding fan. Known as Suehirogaru in Japan, this shape symbolizes expanding prosperity, a bright future, and lasting success. It makes a deeply meaningful present for weddings, wedding favors, housewarmings, anniversaries, and corporate gifts.

Versatile Functionality: From Cocktails to Culinary Arts

While traditionally designed as a classic Moscow Mule mug, the cup's wide, flared silhouette makes it remarkably versatile:

• Cocktails & Drinks: Perfect for a authentic Moscow Mule, craft cocktails, iced coffee, chilled beer, highballs, and sake.

• Culinary Serving Bowl: The wide opening and striking contrast between the red copper and white interior make it a beautiful vessel for serving desserts, ice cream, fresh fruit, or chilled side salads.

Collaboration Between Two Renowned Craft Regions

Created by Odakou douki—a long-established brass and copper foundry in Takaoka, Toyama Prefecture—this brand pairs generations of metalworking expertise with the world-class precision press technology of Tsubame-Sanjo in Niigata Prefecture. Crossing regional boundaries, RED & WHITE is Japan’s first specialty brand dedicated exclusively to copperware. Every single cup is meticulously handmade by skilled artisans, offering unparalleled quality and timeless design.

Meticulously Designed for the Ultimate Chilled Experience

• Superior Thermal Conductivity & Cold Retention Copper boasts exceptionally high thermal conductivity. The moment you pour a chilled drink, the cup instantly drops to the beverage’s exact temperature, keeping it icy cold from the very first sip to the last drop.

• Ergonomic Lip & Visual Presentation The smooth, gently curved rim fits comfortably against your lips for an effortless drinking experience. Meanwhile, the wide opening offers a vivid view of your beverage, ice, or culinary arrangement, enhancing the perception of freshness and flavor.

Available Surface Finishes

• Matte Finish: A sleek, modern, and understated texture that highlights the natural beauty of the metals.

• Hammered Finish (Tsuchime): Intricately hand-hammered by artisans to create a subtle, light-reflecting pattern that conveys traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

Care & Usage Instructions

• Cold Serving Only: Due to the rapid thermal conductivity of copper, do not use for hot food or beverages, as the entire cup will become extremely hot and may cause burns.

• Hand Wash Only: Not dishwasher or microwave safe.

• Cleaning: Gently hand wash with mild dish soap and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive pads, wire brushes, or harsh chemical cleaners, as they may scratch the surface or strip the tin lining.

• Patina / Aging: Over time, copper naturally develops a rich patina (surface oxidation). This natural evolution is a cherished characteristic of copperware. To maintain its original shine, gently polish the exterior with a soft cloth and specialized copper cleaner when needed.
