【April 3rd: First Day Report】
The "Edo Kiriko Cherry Blossom Festival 2026" has begun, celebrating 10 consecutive years of first place in the New Works Exhibition.
Today, April 3rd, the "8th Edo Kiriko Cherry Blossom Festival 2026" opened at Tokyu Plaza Ginza. From the moment it opened, the venue was enveloped in an unprecedented buzz.
【Spectacular】 Witness the 10-Year Track Record of First Place in the New Works Exhibition
Mitsuwa Glass Craft (Glass Studio Saiho) has had the humbling honor of receiving first place for 10 consecutive years at the Edo Kiriko New Works Exhibition.
This year's venue showcases not only "this year's (38th) first-place winning work" and "last year's first-place work," but also numerous masterpieces meticulously crafted by many skilled artisans. It is truly a "supreme venue" where the finest techniques in Japan compete.
Orders flooded the Fujimaki Department Store online shop immediately after its launch. This has led to the highest level of competition ever, with most of the featured products already "sold out."
However, there are still "once-in-a-lifetime" encounters to be had at the Ginza venue. Even if you missed out online, please come to the venue to experience their brilliance firsthand.
【Limited Spots Available】 Your Own Edo Kiriko Experience
In addition to viewing, workshops where you can actually experience Edo Kiriko techniques are also being held simultaneously. There are still a few reservation slots left, so please take this opportunity to experience the artisans' skills firsthand and create a unique glass of your own.
※Reservations will close once all slots are filled. Please speak to the venue staff as soon as possible.
