In Tono, Gifu Prefecture, a major producer of Mino ware with a history of more than 1300 years, the company began selling sake cups in 1887 under the name "Marui Shoten" and has been involved in Mino ware for more than 130 years since its establishment. We are proud of the high level of craftsmanship of our artisans, for example, when the current emperor ascended to the throne as the 125th emperor, we supplied the Imperial Household Agency with vessels for the coronation ceremony.

The cold sense series is made of special paints that change the color when the temperature is "17 °C or lower", while the warm series is made of special paints that change the color when the temperature is "45℃ or above" and they are burned in a special kiln. We repeatedly burned and experimented with prototypes until we achieved the ideal color change. The "Cold sense autumn Leaves Free Glass" is part of the "cold sense series" in which fresh green leaves turn red at temperatures below 17°C and return to green leaves at room temperature. You will surely be fascinated by the amazing changes that occur when you pour a cold drink.
