At the gallery "Gallery Ginza" in Ginza 2-chome, an exhibition of fizz glasses "Miyajima Glass Studio Fizz Glass and Light Exhibition" is being held.

"Miyajima Glass Studio Fizz Glass" is a workshop for fizzgrass in Itsukushima (commonly known as Miyajima) in Hiroshima Prefecture, where Itsukushima-jinja Shrine registered with UNESCO World Cultural Heritage is located.

Unlike blowing glass, fizz glass is said to confine air particles in the glass in the process of baking and producing glass like baking pottery.

The fizz glass "fizz" is Jinfiz's fizz. It is an image of a bubble with shoeshoe, shwashwa and bubbles.

At the venue, works such as lampshades, chopstick rests, brooches, earrings, pierced earrings, and banddome are exhibited.

The transparent glass works of glass and beautiful colored glass stand out in the natural light that shines into the venue on the second floor.

The color of the glass through the light bulb of the lamp shade is warm and gentle.

While explaining, the "Earth Ball" (produced by Masuko, the blue ball on the postcard below) that I forgot to take a picture also emits deep colors in blue and blue when exposed to light.

The glass with air bubbles trapped in the fizz glass is very cool and makes you forget the heat outdoors for a while.

Please stop by once.

In addition, we received your consent for the photography in the gallery, and also gave a careful explanation of the production process of the work.

Thank you very much
