About Limpid Stream 유리 식기는

Limpid Stream 디자인은 리드미컬하게 배열된 고양이 눈동자 덩어리로 사람들이 폭포수 흐름을 채운 듯한 느낌을 줍니다. 그리고 고양이의 동공을 넓은 각도에서 V자 모양으로 잘랐기 때문에 투명한 술을 부을 때 다른 고양이의 동공이 반사되어 고양이 동공 덩어리를 위에서 본 모습이 재미있습니다. 그래서 이 시각적 효과는 물의 흐름 속에서 마음을 상쾌하게 하고 사람들에게 마음의 평화를 줍니다. 와인잔, 사케잔, 접시, 락글라스 등 다양한 형태의 림피드스트림 글라스웨어는 일상을 풍요롭게 합니다.

Production Technology: The double layered glassware is carefully ground and polished by hand using Japanese Kiriko cut glass technology.
Design Challenge: The wheels installed in the grinding machine sold to a general user, cannot cut the shape of cat's pupil. So I calculated the cutting-plane angle of the wheel and ordered the customized wheel to a manufacturer of grinding machine.
Research: In order to realize the project Limpid Stream, it was necessary to prepare for the grinding machine to cut the shape of cat's pupil.
Inspiration: Through Japanese Kiriko cut glass, the project has aimed to enrich human lives. The idea of a Limpid Stream is come up with because at one point, the flow of water in nature healed human feelings and the design pattern was inspired by the rhythmic sound of water.
Project Duration: The project started in May 2019 in Tokushima, Japan and finished in December 2019, and the design got a copyright in registered designs in July 1st 2020 in Japan.
Operation Flow: The top view of the glass tableware realized by Limpid Stream is very beautiful because a mass of cat's pupils is reflecting the other cat's pupils inside the glass by cutting the cat's pupil into V shape at a large angle shown in the optional image #2. And the design is not only beautiful but also very smooth to the touch and shock-resistant because the cut of cat's pupil is shallow in depth.
