time around ice, cold drinks and friends! We think
the ice mug workshop incorporates all three

Ice. It’s a versatile material that can be both
functional and aesthetic. With designs based
on individual taste, sculpted ice does more
than just chill your food and drinks; it makes
any event extra special.
Using drills, picks and other tools of the trade,
Okamoto thrives on the drama as he tames the
complexities of ice to create his clients’ desired
experiences. This means careful execution of
details and an artist’s keen eye for form and
beauty. The result? An amazing work of art:
Life-like sculptures, live performance carvings
and delicate ice creations of all kinds.
