This pair of tall Edo Kiriko stem glasses from Kagami Crystal showcases two traditional Japanese patterns: bamboo leaves (sasa no ha) and octagonal basket weave (kikkō-kagome).

- Bamboo Leaves (Sasa no Ha): A symbol of strength, flexibility, and good fortune. Bamboo remains green throughout the seasons, representing resilience and prosperity.

- Octagonal Basket Weave (Kikkō-kagome): The octagon is considered auspicious in Japan, as the number eight (hachi) signifies expansion and harmony. This mesh design reflects light in multiple directions, creating a brilliant, jewel-like sparkle.

The combination of these motifs creates a glass that is both elegant and deeply meaningful, rooted in cultural symbolism.
