Sake Bomb!

Behind the Burner: Sake Bomb!

This is not your average entertaining set: Just in time for holiday cheer, designer Alexander Purcell introduces the "Sake Bomb." This clever ceramic pouring vessel was inspired by the juxtaposition of a Fugu Fish (or Blowfish) a swank sashimi cut—and a World War II era sea mine. "The name is a comical take on the western slang for the same moniker meaning to drop sake shots in pints of beer," the Los Angeles based designer says.

The bomb holds 8 fluid ounces of sake, and comes with four matching cups, each set on a different spine. Hand crafted using traditional kiln methods, it maintains hot or cold sake temperatures for optimal enjoyment. Sake Bomb is available in four colors: white, black, orange or blue, for $98 a set, exclusively at www.sakebombstore.com
