Skilled carpenters and craftsmen were used to gather to build Nikko Toshogu shrine which is now very popular as a World Heritage site and their skills have taken root in Kanuma, Tochigi.

He discussed about the shape with the craftsmen and considered to make the samples. Finally, they made it. Its shape is just fit in hands and a thin lip of the cup makes a soft touching, which is created by Japanese traditional craftsmanship. He thinks that Sakura cup never make it without Japanese craftsmen skill. He wants to serve some tea which is served with Sakura cup in break time.
