[November 3 Meiji Day] 
The spirit of "Wa Glass" inherited by Hirota Glass since its founding in Meiji 32. 

Hirota Glass was founded in Meiji 32 (1899) in Tamachi, Tokyo. 

With the wave of modernization, glass-making techniques were introduced from the West.

 The craftsmen of the time sought to harmonize these techniques with delicate beauty suited to Japanese life.

 The "Wa" in "Wa Glass" embodies meanings such as "calm," "harmonious," and "peaceful."

The subtle undulations and soft light refraction created by handwork.

Each unique glass expression carries the passion of the craftsmen of the time and their warm desire to enrich the lives of its users. 

In today's world, with its increasing emphasis on efficiency, we continue to uphold the value of handwork, crafting products that convey the warmth of the artisans. 

We hope you can experience the enduring beauty of "Wa Glass" in your everyday moments.
