These are beautiful blue and white glass cups featuring a checkered pattern. These glasses are made by many Japanese glass manufacturers, and are particularly popular as traditional Kiriko glasses and Edo glass designs. Detailed Information: Design: A vibrant checkered pattern of alternating blue and white (or clear) glass, which is one of Japan's traditional patterns. This pattern is considered an auspicious design, meaning "eternity" and "prosperity." Manufacturing Method: The glasses in the image are likely made using the blown glass technique, and many are handmade with a warm feel.
