Tokyo, taito ward / sand blast (~10 guests) / 1.5 hours
5.0
(1 reviews)
My name is Akihiko Nakagawa and I am a lecturer at the "Sandblast Headquarters Classroom" for glass crafts in Asakusabashi, Taito-ku, Tokyo. After graduating from the Tamagawa University Faculty of Letters, I experienced sales at an IT trading company. I opened a sandblasting class at the age of 18. Since then, for more than 20 years, we have provided technical guidance to 1,000 people annually.
Sandblasting is relatively new among many glasswork techniques, and it is easy to learn, and even beginners can create works with a surprisingly high degree of perfection. Please experience it once and touch the fun. You will be able to feel the charm called "magic glass art". We are looking forward to seeing you all.

| More info | Sandblasting experience (glass production) ☆ You can make one original glass by blowing sand on the surface of porcelain and carving a pattern. You can take home the finished work on the day! Choose your favorite glass, paste a pattern on it, cut out the outline, blow sand on the surface of the glass with a machine called a blaster, and the bare glass surface will be scraped off with a machine to change the color and make the pattern more vivid. Float up, wash with water, dry and you're done. The experience time is about 1.5 hours and there is no difficult process, and even if you are not good at drawing, you can create a work with a high degree of perfection. We have many design guides available, but if you have a "picture" or "character" that you would like to include, please bring it on the day. In addition, on the day of the event, an experienced sandblasting guide will kindly and carefully support the creation of the work. |
