What Is Edo Kiriko?

Edo Kiriko is the cut glass of Tokyo, officially designated a Traditional Craft of Japan. Most pieces start as cased glass: a thin layer of colored glass fused over thick clear glass. Artisans then cut geometric patterns by hand, so each groove reveals the clear glass beneath and catches the light like a jewel. The deep cobalt blue comes from cobalt and the rich red from copper, melted right into the glass. Only cut glass made by hand in the Tokyo region by members of the Edo Kiriko Cooperative may carry the Edo Kiriko name.

Born in Edo, 1834

Born in Edo, 1834

Edo Kiriko is said to have begun in 1834, when a glass merchant in Edo (old Tokyo) carved designs into glass. In 1881, a British cut-glass expert was invited to teach his techniques, and the craft we know today took shape.
Cut by Hand

Cut by Hand

An artisan first marks guidelines on the glass, then cuts the pattern on a wet diamond wheel, refines each line, smooths it on stone, and polishes until it sparkles. Patterns like nanako, or fish roe, echo the motifs on kimono.
