Futagami is a brass lifestyle brand launched in 2009 by Futagami Co., Ltd., a foundry established in 1897, together with designer Masanori Oji.
Takaoka copperware is a traditional craft that has been handed down in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, for approximately 400 years. Brass has been used in a variety of fields, including architectural hardware, ship fittings, and furniture fittings. It also has a long history as a material for arts and crafts and Buddhist altar fittings because of the soft texture and elegant luster of the material.
The more you use brass, the more its surface oxidizes and develops a unique flavor, making it a material that will fit in with your daily life over time. Why don't you feel the desire to cherish and watch over it like a treasure that has been by your side since childhood, as time passes?

Care Instructions
To remove white stains that occur when using the coaster, dilute a 5% solution of citric acid in a cloth or rag and rub the stained area with the cloth or rag. Afterwards, wash the coaster, wipe off any water droplets, and dry well.
This coaster is made of cast brass and has a motif of streaks of light. Water droplets on the bottom of the glass do not accumulate in one place but are dispersed in a streaked pattern, so the coaster does not stick to the glass. A rubber ring is embedded on the back side so that the coaster can be used without scratching the table. Video
