Shiina Kiriko Edo Kiriko Firework, a traditional Japanese cut-glass craft

Shiina Kiriko is a contemporary Edo-kiriko cut-glass brand created by the artisans of GLASS-LAB, a glass workshop with a three-generation legacy in Tokyo. Blending traditional Edo-kiriko techniques with modern design, Shiina Kiriko is known for its refined craftsmanship, delicate precision, and innovative approach to light and reflection.

The brand specializes in flat-cut and sand-blast techniques, allowing artisans to carve exceptionally fine patterns—some as thin as 0.09 mm—resulting in glassware that reveals beautiful reflections and expanding motifs when liquid is poured inside. This unique visual effect has become one of Shiina Kiriko’s trademarks.

Shiina Kiriko’s works often explore themes of “en”, meaning connection or bond, expressing the idea that handcrafted glass can create and deepen meaningful relationships when shared or gifted.

Today, Shiina Kiriko stands as a bridge between traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern lifestyle design, offering pieces that are both functional and artistically captivating.
