伝統工芸である江戸切子を自ら作ることができる! ワクワクして参加しました。
当日は私たちを含め6人で体験スタート。
削り方や機械の説明を分かりやすく丁寧に教えてくださりました。
まずは練習用のグラスで体験。あまり力を入れすぎたり削りすぎたりしたら割れてしまうのでは…と、最初はおっかなビックリでしたが、慣れてくると大胆に削ることができるようになりました。
そして本番!自分の選んだ形、色のグラスに削りたい柄を描き込み、削り始めました。いつの間にかすっかり職人気分になっていました。
こんなに集中したのは何年ぶりだろうかと感じるくらい全力で集中しました。
出来上がったグラスはオンリーワンの伝統工芸作品となりました。

彼女と2人で初めて参加しました。
私たち以外の参加者が2人いらっしゃって計4人での体験でした。先生1人も含め、皆マスク着用してました。
机の上に作品例が並べてあり、コップの色や形などを選びます。
青や赤のガラスコップは追加料金が1-2千円ほどかかります。
追加料金がなければ色の付いているコップにしたかったですが、若干高く思えたのと、削る難易度が少し上がるということだったので、今回は基本料金で選べる透明なコップにしました。
コップにとれない汚れが付いていたのですが、先生に言ったら新しいコップをくれました。
削り始めてから汚れに気付いたのですが、汚れたコップもプレゼントします、と言っていただき、2人で3つのコップを作成しました。
綺麗に削るのは至難の業で、コップの出来栄えは明らかに素人のものでしたが、良い体験でした。

旅行も自粛ムードが漂う中、せめて何か家族の思い出が作れたらという思いで参加しました。
教室は感染症対策が施されていましたし、一人一人機械に向かって作業をするので、受講者同士がそんなに密になることもないと思います。
初めての江戸切子体験でしたが、先生の説明もわかりやすく、楽しく、時間があっという間に過ぎました。グラス選び、既存のデザインを選びつつ少しアレンジしてオリジナリティーを出しているので、本当に世界でひとつの江戸切子グラスが完成しました。
早速家でマイグラスとして使っています。
グラスを使う度に思い出が巡り、江戸切子体験という共通の会話も楽しんでいます。

前々から興味があった江戸切子に初挑戦。2人で参加する予定が、このコロナ禍の折り、友人は体調が理由で不参加。一人でしたが、参加することにしました。先生は若くて、清潔感のある方。淡々と説明してくださり、2時間の講習はあっと言う間に過ぎました。グラスは別料金です。(300円から数千円まで)最初は力の入れ具合がわからなかったり、線がはみ出してしまったり、、、ですが、刻んでいくうちにコツがわかってきました。あまりにもはみ出してしまった線は、先生がちゃんと修正してくれました。チャチャっと素早く綺麗に修復。流石!まるで魔法みたい。どういう風にやったんだろ〜?大切な事。眼鏡を忘れてしまい、細かい作業でしたので、必需品でした。皆さんも気をつけてください。江戸時代の伝統工芸を今に伝えるこの江戸切子。2時間の間、一つの事に集中することの楽しさをまた実感しました。自分の作品はこれからも大切に保持していこうと思っています。とにかく、このコロナ禍の折りではありましたが、楽しかった!です。

初めは「ガラスを削るなんて無理!」「失敗したら取り返しがつかないのではないか!」と思って躊躇していましたが、思いきって申込んで良かったです。
最初に説明と練習があり、また本番で上手くいかなくても、先生がある程度は修正してくださり、最終的にはなんとか形にすることができました!
左右対称とか同じ模様を同じ大きさに削っていくとかはかなり難しいかもしれないので、無難な柄にしておくと意外とイケるかも!!
専門の場所でないとできない体験なのでオススメです。教室の下階はお店になっているので、作るだけでなく本物の江戸切子を購入することもできます。お店を見るだけでも目の保養になります!
グラスはきちんと箱に入れて手提げの紙袋に入れてくれるので、持ち帰りにも便利です!外国人の方はお土産にしてもよいと思いますし、日本人の方でもぜひ一度は味わってみるとよいと思います!オススメです(*^^*)

This workshop was amazing! One of my best experiences while in Japan.
You only get to learn the basics and repair one small cup, but the instructors let you know what to buy in order to do more kintsugi in the future. You also get shown many examples which are very inspiring. I really feel like fixing up more stuff in the future, which will be easy since we received a set of instructions to follow at home as well!

Edo Kiriko dates back to 1836 and was recognized as a traditional Tokyo craft in 1985.
Using clear or colored glass, artisans sketch a design and use a grinder to cut intricate patterns (including flowers, leaves, bamboo woven baskets, and more modern interpretations).
In this one-hour workshop at Sokichi in Asakusa, you’ll have the chance to learn how Edo Kiriko is created. You start with practicing on a sample glass, then choose and sketch your design and cut your design.
At the end, you’ll have a chance to photograph your finished masterpiece.
Instruction and guidance was given in English and Japanese.
Outstanding opportunity to experience a traditional craft and a unique souvenir of your time in Japan, highly recommended!!

This class was absolutely terrific! The teachers are talented artists who also speak great English! The class was very thorough and they have considered every aspect of it- full demonstration, written instructions, and a bilingual shopping list so students can purchase their own materials. The tea and pastry at the beginning of class was a nice touch too. Can’t recommend this experience ENOUGH! The traditional teacup I chose to repair is from the late Edo period (also explained in class), and is a wonderful momento from my trip. Thank you so much!!

This was a well planned and facilitated experience by two delightful artisans. The kintsugi art is meditative and allows creativity and self expression. I look at “ broken” things differently now, and am eager to try the technique on my own with the materials I was able to purchase with the advice of the artisans. They teach the technique with patience and care that participants understand the art and culture of Japan more deeply. It was a peak experience for me, both unusual and heart warming.

Not many souvenirs say Japan better than a plastic sushi key chain.

The pier was easy to find, and there were several boats lined up and we were so excited and tried to ride each one, there was a man at the pier who finally told us which one was our boat.
It was funny watching everyone coming down the earlier boats because they all looked tipsy!
When we got on board, the tables were already set with appetizers, and each table was assigned to a group. It was very interesting to see what each of the appetizers were, then we noticed a pot that had sukiyaki ready to cook!!! We tried the peach plum cocktail (all you can drink!)
We got served yummy shrimp, fish, veg tempura, then the candle under the sukiyaki pot was lit, as the boat sailed towards Odaiba. There was a stop at at Odaiba for a chance at amazing cityscape photos. By the time the candle burned out the sukiyaki was done - and it was very good and tasted clean and fresh.
Then there was a fun lion dance performed by one of the waiters - which was funny and quite entertaining.
All in all a fun first time experience for a Yakatabune cruise - would recommend you try it if you've never done one before.

初めての屋形船でした。歌あり、踊りありという感じで食事や景色以外の楽しみもあり、非常に満足でした。
私たちが乗船した時は40名弱のお客さんとの乗り合いで、日本人が9割という感じでした。食べ物はとても美味しく、また、ボリュームも十分でした。お刺身やお肉も美味しかったですが、一番は揚げたての天ぷらでした。アナゴやイカ、エビなどを揚げたてのものを運んでいただく形です。飲み物はビールや酎ハイ、ワインに梅酒と一通りの飲み物は揃っていました。
屋形船からの景色はスカイツリーやお台場を眺めることができました。特にお台場に設置された水上の五輪モニュメントは船で接近して写真を撮ることができて非常によかったです。
およそ2時間半の船旅でしたが、とても楽しかったです。また花見の季節や花火の季節での乗船を検討しようと思います。

This was one of my most valuable experiences in Japan in four and a half months of staying. You are very warmly welcomed with a drink (there is more than enough for a couple of drinks) and a homemade cake.
The couple helps you out working on your piece of choice (or your own cup! I brought my own cup which I found in the woods of Chichibu), explain which tool is for what and how to do what you are about to do. You can do this at your own pace and you do not have to fear not having stable hands or not being able to pull it off. They will always support you in getting a beautiful piece to take home.
They will show you what you need to buy from Tokyu Hands to execute the technique at home and give you a tour through their works and their workshop in the building on the left.
If you're in Tokyo, got some spare time or want to learn a Japanese craft, definitely recommended to go here! English is no problem!

This was a fantastic experience for my wife and myself to sit with 2 very skilled teachers and learn about Kintsugi.
A very warm and inviting environment, you are greeted with a delicious treat and tea or coffee.
It's then straight into learning different aspects of Kintsugi.
At the end of the class your item is packaged securely and neatly ready for you to take home.
The Shop is very easy to locate, just follow the directions provided when booking. The walk from the station is around 10 minutes, with some family marts on the way if a toilet is required.

初めて江戸切子制作体験をしましたが、とても丁寧に教えて頂けて、初心者でも楽しく作ることができました。ありがとうございました。
私は1人で申し込みましたが、個々のグラスの絵柄毎にアドバイスを頂けるので、1人参加でも友人や家族単位でも楽しく参加できるところが良いです。
申込前にベルトラのレビューを見て、練習する時間を多く取ると本番が足りないとのコメントが多かったので少し心配でしたが、実際に体験してみると、ちゃんと良いものを作るためには練習が必要だし、練習の線でも凄く丁寧にアドバイスを頂けて本番の自分のグラスに取り組めたので練習は大事かなと思いました。
これから参加するかたが時間を考えるのなら、自分が納得するまで練習するというより、練習の線を削る都度に先生に確認してもらって的確なアドバイスを頂いて本番に臨むのが良いと思います。
自分が体験してとても楽しかったので、東京観光に来る友人に勧めたいと思いますし、私もまた参加して今回作ったのと色違いのペアグラスを作りたいなと思いました。
