Satsuma Kiriko, Created Satsuma Bowl, Konoha
The evolution of Edo Kiriko is all thanks to Satsuma! Modern cut glass born in Osaka!
Takumi Kiriko attempts to create a trend that is directed toward a future of kiriko while making full use of revived traditional Satsuma Kiriko techniques. The soul of Takumi Kiriko is the finely-honed sensibilities and outstanding artisanal skills of Takumi Takahashi, a kiriko master craftsman with 50 years experience. He was also involved in working on the reproduction of Satsuma Kiriko works that once existed. At Takumi Studio, glass is meticulously hand-polished using wood boards and cork. Polishing by hand, as opposed too acid polishing by dissolving the glass surface with chemicals, creates sharp edges and enhanced shine.
[What is Kiriko?]
Kiriko is the Japanese name for the craft of cut glass (glass with a pattern engraved on its surface). Edo Kiriko and Satsuma Kiriko are the names of kinds of traditional glass crafts in Japan. In the Edo period, cut glass was brought to Osaka by way of Nagasaki, and then blossomed in Edo as Edo Kiriko. After this, the Satsuma clan became involved in working on kiriko glass as a clan business, and Satsuma Kiriko was born. Backed up by uniquely Japanese sensibility, Satsuma Kiriko boasted advanced techniques and beauty but, in the midst of the upheaval at the end of the Tokugawa shogunate period, it was discontinued after only a short time. However, at the end of the 20th century it was once again reconsidered and then reproduced by a leading authority in the field of glass crafts, reviving this beautiful looking craft.

Beautiful Kowatari Sarasa (dyed woven products that came to Japan around 400 years ago) carefully left behind by daimyo and the very rich. Among their designs, the Sasatsurudekin Sarasa has been reproduced here. The flawless composition has smart, noble elegance.

[Unyade Gotenjo Sarasa]
A copy of one item from the sarasa collection passed down by the II family of the former Hikone Domain (currently at the Tokyo National Museum). Its fine, sophisticated arabesque-style base pattern, with circles inside a lattice, is carefully reproduced. Also, by faithfully reproducing the characteristic deep madder and indigo colors of Indian chintz, a refined item that conveys the atmosphere of Kowatari Sarasa has been created. (An excerpt from commentary by Professor Sae Ogasawara, Tokyo National Museum Visiting Researcher.)

[Dan Sarasa]
A type that was part of the sarasa collection passed down by the II family of the former Hikone Domain. The composition bears a close resemblance to one that is introduced in old documents "Zoho Kafu Benran" and "Sarasa Zufu". The weathered state of the green background looks great and brings about depth.

Beautiful Kowatari Sarasa (dyed woven products that came to Japan around 400 years ago) carefully left behind by daimyo and the very rich. Among their designs, the Ogide Sarasa has been reproduced here. It features a round pattern that combines 3 fan faces.
[Ogide Sarasa]
There are 4 items with the same pattern as this in the Hikone Sarasa collection (sarasa passed down by the II family of the former Hikone Domain, currently at the Tokyo National Museum). Two of these items have a black background. The sarasa of the manufacturer's research center collection is black yet includes a striped portion, which tells us it is made in India. If the ribs of the fan face were made by the Japanese, the portion where the pin joins the fan ribs together would be designed with parallel lines. This sarasa is a round pattern that combines 3 fan faces together. With this, you can sense the enjoyment in India of combining the fan faces to create another pattern. The pattern has been slightly shrunk when producing this item.
