Fukuoka Multi-layer GlassGlasswork

Multi-layer glass is a popular form of glass-based craft that has been produced in Fukuoka for approximately 90 years. Characterized by its use of assorted, highly transparent glass in multiple layers, ample lines and 130 different colors inherited over the generations, multi-layer glass is used to create a range of stunning decorative items and tableware. To this day, artisans working in this tradition strive to improve their standards on a daily basis with the goal of providing the best quality glassware possible.
