Satsuma Kiriko cut glass is made by covering the surface of clear crystal glass with colored glass with a thickness of 1 mm or more, cutting it deeply, and polishing it. The "blurring" created by the thick colored glass is the most distinctive feature of Satsuma Kiriko. Only the pieces that have passed the strict inspection standards are engraved with the "Satsuma" mark and delivered to customers as products. While inheriting the techniques of our predecessors, we also produce new types of Satsuma Kiriko cut glass, such as the stylish Satsuma Black Kiriko and Satsuma Brown Kiriko, which are suited to modern lifestyle.
