Bidoro — derived from the Portuguese for glass, vidro — is a hand-blown glass style that arrived through a port at Nagasaki during the Edo period (1603 – 1868), when Japan chose to be sequestered from the larger world. This is Rurian, the studio that brought this vintage technique to modern times. Holding a sake vessel in the chirori form, recreated using the Edo-era handcrafting technique, KASHIYUKA notes, “The color appears solid and deep, yet it has a marvelous transparency.”
Purchase No.36【Chirori of Nagasaki Glass】A Bidoro glass sake set the color of lapis lazuli that recalls a bygone era.
Scissors used exclusively in glass crafting. The ends are shaped to wrap around and grasp the molten glass.
