About MIRIYU Kōbō

Drawing upon centuries of tradition, this is glassware painstakingly crafted to create an exquisite delicate quality.

Within an idyllic setting nestled in the midst of acres of paddy fields, the Miriyu workshop is where ancient method and modern style meet in perfect harmony.

In the expert hands of master glasscutter Susumu Nishiaoki, one of the region's most historic glassware techniques _ Satsuma Kiriko - is brought to stunning reality. This is an unforgiving process which demands absolute perfection and allows for no mistakes.

Superior craftsmanship that is tested at every stage of the arduous process of intricate carving and polishing. The result is a sparkling vision of shimmering glassware that rests cool in the hand and feels as perfectly smooth to the touch as to the eye.

Satsuma Kiriko is a renowned technique famously unique to the region. One which flourished in the Edo era but in the turbulence of the late 19th century, ended up almost lost for 100 years. Only to be rediscovered and revitalised at the end of the last century.

Since then, while remaining totally faithful to the traditional crafting processes, the Miriyu workshop under Nishiaoki's meticulous stewardship, is dedicated to creating a range of glassware ever fresh and modern. And now with those centuries of experience to call upon, Miriyu Kobo brings something new and groundbreaking to the world of Japanese glassware with its stylish flair and eye-catching design.
