The Ichendorf Transit coffee cup is a delicate, transparent piece that captures the quiet elegance typical of Tsukasa Goto. Part of the refined universe of Ichendorf Cups & Mugs, it is designed to enhance the pleasure of a small espresso or a light tea, offering a moment of calm through its pure, essential lines. Its presence becomes even more expressive when paired with floral compositions or clean silhouettes from the Ichendorf | Vases selection, creating a balanced and contemporary atmosphere on the table.

Handmade clarity shaped over flame

Crafted from handmade and lampworked borosilicate glass, the Transit coffee cup reflects the artisanal spirit of the entire collection. Every curve is formed through traditional flame-working, giving the cup a smooth, luminous surface and a delicacy that belies its strength. The material’s natural resistance makes it suitable for everyday routines, while the dishwasher-safe feature at low temperatures ensures practicality without compromising its graceful look. This craftsmanship brings a subtle individuality to each cup, a reminder of the hands and gestures that shaped it.

A minimal object for daily rituals

The cup is intentionally small, created to frame the aroma and intensity of an espresso while remaining equally pleasant for a soft tea or herbal infusion. Its transparent body highlights the colours of the drink, adding a visual component to the tasting moment. The influences of Tsukasa Goto design for Ichendorf appear in its quiet balance, the linear proportions and the Japanese-inspired restraint that gives shape to many Transit pieces. This combination makes it an elegant choice for those who appreciate the lightness and simplicity found in japanese inspired drinkware.

When integrated into a home setting, the cup interacts beautifully with different table elements. Its clean silhouette harmonises with modern trays, ceramic accessories or minimalist glass pieces, and its transparency allows it to blend naturally with various aesthetics. Whether placed beside a vase with a single stem or on a breakfast table, it brings a sense of order and calm that enhances the pleasure of the moment.

Everyday elegance with artisanal roots

While delicate in appearance, the Transit coffee cup is surprisingly functional. Its borosilicate glass gives it a reassuring lightness and a refined clarity that expresses the essence of artisanal italian craftsmanship. This same clarity enhances its role as an elegant coffee accessory, suitable for morning rituals, afternoon breaks or quiet evenings. Its minimal presence, combined with the precision of handmade work, transforms a simple gesture into a small experience of beauty.

With its understated sophistication, this glass espresso cup becomes a timeless companion for those who appreciate transparency, simplicity and thoughtful design. Versatile, durable and visually serene, it embodies the contemporary spirit of Ichendorf while preserving the warmth of artisanal creation.
