Haru-tade & Yukiyanagi: Kimura Glass Cut Glassware in Otaru

Wrapped in light: Haru-tade and Yukiyanagi.

We are pleased to introduce a glass series from Kimura Glass, known for its delicate beauty.

With a clean, refined silhouette, the series expresses the forms of haru-tade (smartweed) and yukiyanagi (spiraea) through fine cuts. When light passes through the ultra-thin glass, each cut sparkles and gives the piece a quiet presence.

You will feel its lightness the moment you pick it up, and its delicate beauty changes expression in the light.

At the Sake Vessel Storehouse (Shuki-gura) of Taisho Glass in Otaru, you can hold the glasses yourself and feel their thinness and the fineness of the cuts. Please come and see these light-wrapped glasses in person.
