Mincius

Mincius is an ergonomic design that combines meditation and Zen with drinking experience. Its design language comes from connecting nature and daily life by simulating the shape of zen rock stacking, which has carried spiritual meaning across cultures for centuries and turned it to be a tool to expand spirit. It is made by hand-made glass blowing technology.
