 Today, I visited "Ando Shihoten" near the corner of Ginza 5-chome.

There were spring-like cherry blossoms, my favorite Cattleya flower pattern, designs such as "Owl", and cloisonne products depicting famous peak Fuji.

This time, I especially liked the cloisonne product designed by "Aka Fuji", loop tie.

The city walk in Ginza will be more and more fun in the future.

 They were carefully packaged, and in the box, there was a piece of paper indicating the artist's name and a brilliant award. 

With this casual attention, I became more and more fond of "Ando Shihoten".

 *We received a leaflet describing the production process of Cloisonne.

The technique of the cloisonne was invented by Tsuneyoshi Kaji of Owari Kaifu-gun during the Tenpo era, and the history of the development from the invention of the cloisonne is described.

 Reply: Introducing the artist in the paper pieces I received.

The writer of this cloisonne product is Zentaro Tsuchida, born in Fukui Prefecture in 1939, and holds solo exhibitions mainly in Tokyo and Osaka, including excellence awards and prizes at the International Cloisonne Exhibition.

Currently, he is working mainly on cloisonne accessories.
