Cutters grind traditional geometric patterns by hand through a thin layer of coloured glass cased over clear crystal, so the cuts show as brilliant clear lines against the colour. Glass Studio Saihō (硝子工房 彩鳳) is a workshop specialising in this craft, and this vase is sold through its own shop. The yarai (bamboo fence) pattern is traditionally read as a ward against misfortune, and the bamboo leaf as a sign of vigour and long life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaker: Glass Studio Saihō (硝子工房 彩鳳), Edo kiriko\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePattern: 剣矢来重文様 (double ken-yarai with bamboo leaf)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: diameter 150 mm × height 200 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: colour-cased crystal glass, purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBox: wooden box, 167 × 167 × 238 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade: small bubbles and slight variations in size and colour are normal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: new\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWatch: Edo kiriko being cut at Glass Studio Saiho\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA making-of film showing how Edo kiriko is produced at Glass Studio Saiho, from the studio's own channel.
