Die Ontwerp

Oor Sakura Koppie

Hy het die Sakura ontwerp om doeltreffend van houtmateriaal gebruik te maak sonder om natuurlike hulpbronne te mors. Die simmetrievorm beskik oor geboë oppervlaktes wat 'n natuurlike beide-hande-pas bied en dit verbeter 'n pragtige houtgraan. 'n Fyn afwerking van die rand skep 'n sagte reikwydte na die mond, wat individueel deur Japannese tradisionele vakmanne met die hand gemaak is. Die wit en beige gemengde kleur tou is versier as 'n bekerhouer met 'n klein vasgebind slangknoop is 'n aksent van die ontwerp om nie eenvoudig te wees nie.
