This product, Guinomi / Gyokushippo, is a product based on the traditional cloisonne pattern.
Not just used to place the cloisonne, but hoping that the cloisonne will look like a flower lover when viewed from above, the whole cloisonné will be integrated as a design that looks like a large flower lover. We have succeeded in.
Cloisonne is an auspicious pattern that has the meaning of the importance of harmony (ring) between people with a harmonious appearance that the circles are connected infinitely so that the relationship between people will continue forever. is.
It also expresses the seven treasures of "gold, silver, crystal, lapis lazuli, agate, coral, and shako" described in Buddhism, and all treasures are in hand, that is, property. It also has the meaning of being prosperous and wealthy.
A round ball (tama) and a ball (gyoku) were placed in the center of the cloisonne.
"Tama" has the meaning of "a very important thing" in addition to the meaning of a sphere.
Thrones, kings, gyokuro, etc. are all attached to mean "very important things".
The balls are not polished, but frosted glass. (Erasing is applied)
That's because I gave the ball a meaning, but I don't dare to specify what it means.
Cloisonne, the center of the circle of people, and the ball at the center of the seven treasures.
We want each customer who purchases to project something on the ball and create a new story.
The Kiriko of our workshop is polished using the traditional method of Edo Kiriko, "hand polishing", which maintains the strength of the glass and finishes it with high quality.
On the other hand, there are some things in the world that polish the glass while immersing it in an acid called "acid polishing" and melting the entire glass into pieces.
Acid-polished ones have the disadvantages of being easily scratched and the color may fade, but since the man-hours can be reduced and the price can be sold at a low price, sales will improve, so many workshops and writers perform acid-polishing. We are here.
Since the cut surface of our workshop is polished one by one, the original strength of the glass is not lost, and you can wash it with a detergent or scrubbing brush.
Please note that boiling water, microwave ovens and dishwashers cannot be used like any other glassware.
The handling method is explained in detail on the homepage of the workshop.
