Yamada Glass - Crystal Glass Rock Glass - Wave - Amber Blue
For three generations spanning 80 years, Yamada Glass has been creating original pieces by employing both Edo Kiriko and Hanakiriko methods. Hanakiriko involves thinning the glass surface, infusing new sensibilities into traditional patterns, and creating distinctive Edo Kiriko designs. They emphasize preserving tradition while innovating, crafting various glassware, and collaborating with designers and corporations. Their creations include glasses depicting Japan's symbols, like cherry blossoms and Mount Fuji, reaching out to the world.
Each item in our Yamada Glass collection is handcrafted by Mr. Masaaki Yamada, who has received various awards, including the Tokyo Challenge Awards, and participated in numerous exhibitions, talks, and international events. Currently, he serves as the head of the Events Department at the Edo Kiriko Association and is a member of the Sumida Traditional Crafts Preservation Society.
The Wave
Meticulously themed around the ocean. Each piece is an artistic rendition capturing the fluidity of waves using graceful curves, portraying the undulating motion of the sea. Adorned with traditional motifs like 'Kikutsunagi' and 'Seigaiha,' these designs are thoughtfully arranged in a random yet harmonious manner.
The uniqueness of each creation stems from the inherent freedom in the creative process, ensuring that no two pieces are alike. Utilizing vibrant colours and precise craftsmanship, these glasses not only embody the beauty of the ocean but also reflect the individuality and artistry of our skilled artisans.
