What To Expect

Edo Kiriko Workshop This experience takes place at a traditional Edo Kiriko glass workshop in Tokyo, where you will create your own cut glass piece under the guidance of a skilled craftsman. After arriving at the workshop, you will first receive an introduction to the history and techniques of Edo Kiriko, a traditional Japanese glass-cutting craft. The instructor will explain the tools, safety precautions, and the design process. Next, you will begin cutting patterns into your glass step by step using traditional equipment, with close guidance provided throughout the experience. No prior experience is required, and the instructor or assistant will support you at each stage. During the workshop, you can observe the craftsman’s work up close and take photos inside the workshop.

  • An Authentic Edo Kiriko Experience with Real Craftsmanship

    This was a rare opportunity to experience real Edo Kiriko cutting techniques firsthand. The English-speaking guide was outstanding—clear, engaging, and incredibly easy to understand. Learning about Edo Kiriko’s history while comparing it to glass from my own country was fascinating. Many unique works by skilled artisans are available for purchase on-site, making it enjoyable even beyond the workshop itself. The location is also very convenient, close to the station. A wonderful experience that I highly recommend to anyone who wants to connect with the true spirit of Japan.
