Champagne Coolers

Nakagawa Mokkōgei Hirakōbō
Crafted from Bishū Hinoki cypress — where natural warmth meets refined design

The Art of the Chill: Nakagawa Mokkōgei’s Bishū Hinoki Masterpieces

We present two exceptional champagne coolers from Nakagawa Mokkōgei Hirakōbō, each crafted from Bishū Hinoki cypress, prized for its elegant grain and captivating aroma.

The KONOHA combines natural warmth with refined design through its lightweight, condensation-resistant form and smooth elliptical silhouette. Meanwhile, the SHIZUKU offers elegant compactness with smooth curves and minimalist form, embodying refined Japanese craftsmanship.

Bishū Hinoki cypress is prized for its exceptional durability and gentle fragrance. The wood's natural properties make it ideal for elevated hospitality, resistant to moisture while remaining remarkably light.

Located near Lake Biwa in Shiga Prefecture, Nakagawa Mokkōgei Hirakōbō continues a lineage of handcrafted woodwork passed down through generations. Their use of hinoki, sawara, koya-maki and other premium woods preserves an artisanal heritage while meeting contemporary luxury standards.

With each cooler, the natural scent of hinoki, the clarity of form, and the quiet discipline of joinery combine to create more than utilitarian objects. They are expressions of time-honoured technique, elegant material, and the essence of refined Japanese hospitality.
