It's a rental service that attracts many foreigners, and I was able to wear a kimono that was much cuter than I expected! The place is small, but the staff, who speak multiple languages, are friendly, and their sense of kimono dressing and hairstyles is outstanding. Overall, it was a smooth process. Also, I couldn't help but think that the kimono I wore while walking around Asakusa was the cutest! I would love to use this service again.
外国人がいっぱい来るレンタルサービスですが、思ったよりずっとかわいい着物を着るができました!場所は狭いが、多言語をしゃべるスタッフ陣の対応がフレンドリーで、着付けと髪型のセンスも抜群です。全体的にスムーズな過程でした。また、着付けしてもらった着物も、浅草の街中を歩いても、一番かわいいと自分が思ってしまいました笑。また利用したいと思います。

Great overall experience. The instructor was very friendly and polite. He explained every step of the process and gave some background information on plastic food samples. The instructor was patient and we also had a good chat. The atmosphere was relaxed. I made a bowl of ramen and got it packaged neatly for me to take home. Would recommend this experience!

The entrance is somewhat hard to find, but I don't think it's a big problem since the staff is standing by. The experience was shared with another group, but the tables were separate. Due to infection control measures, I wonder if the windows are open? You can see the Sumida River from the windows, and it feels very pleasant. You practice with a practice glass before carving your own glass, so I think it's less likely to make mistakes.
若干入り口は分かりづらいですが、お店の方が立っているのでさほど問題ないと思います。
体験は他のグループの方と一緒でしたが、机は別々でした。
感染対策で開けている?窓からは隅田川も見え、とても心地がいいです。
練習用グラスで練習してから自分のグラスを削るので、失敗もしにくいと思います。

I participated in the 1:00 PM session on a weekday. It was my first time experiencing Edo Kiriko, and I had a fantastic time! There were many sample glasses on the table, and we started by choosing the shape, color, and design. The colored glasses come with an additional fee, but the basic glasses are at the same price.
The instructor carefully taught us how to carve, and afterwards, we had the opportunity to practice individually, so there’s no need to worry even if it’s your first time. They also draw guideline lines for the patterns, so you’re not creating everything completely on your own.
After this experience, I truly appreciated the incredible skills of the artisans. I realized how meticulously everything is made. That said, the glass I carved myself has its own charm, and I am very satisfied with it. I quickly bought some Hakkaisan and enjoyed delicious sake.
There were five participants, and the room was cozy, but everyone was wearing masks and seemed to be enjoying themselves. There is a shop on the first floor.
平日13:00の回に参加しました。
江戸切子は初めてでしたが、すっごく楽しかったです!机の上にたくさんのグラス(見本)が置いてあり、形や色・デザインなどを最初に選びます。カラーグラスは+料金がかかりますが、基本グラスはお値段そのままです。
先生が丁寧に削り方をレクチャーしてくれて、その後に各自練習ができるので、初めてでも心配ありません。柄も目安になる線を引いてもらえるので、全部ひとりで作成するのではないので大丈夫です。
今回体験してみて、職人さんの技のすごさを改めて実感しました。すごく丁寧に作られているのだと思いました。とはいえ、自分で削ったグラスも味があって、私は大満足です。早速、八海山を購入して、美味しく日本酒を頂きました。
参加者は5名で、部屋はこじんまりとしていましたが、皆さんマスク着用で、それぞれ楽しんでいるように見えました。1階にお店があります。

Some locations can be difficult to find, but the thorough lectures and the emphasis on independence during the experience will undoubtedly create lasting memories. It brings me the greatest joy to have something I created remain as a cherished memory. The design is free, so surprisingly, children might come up with more creative ideas and produce masterpieces. Sightseeing isn't the only aspect of travel. I highly recommend the experience tour.
場所が見つけづらい所もありますが、
丁寧なレクチャーと、自主性を重んじた体験は、思い出に残ること間違いない。
自分の作成されたものが、思い出の物として残ることが何よりも嬉しい。
デザインは自由なので、意外にも子どもの方が発想力に翔んで傑作が出来るかも。
名所見物だけが旅行ではない。
体験ツアーオススメです。

I went to an Edo Kiriko experience on February 19. It's very accessible since it's just a short walk from Asakusa Station, and the experience fee is reasonable.
Regarding the glass selection for the Edo Kiriko experience, I was told that beginners should avoid glasses with dark colors. However, I really wanted a red or blue glass, so I chose blue this time.
At first, they let me practice on a practice glass, which helped me prepare mentally before the actual work. However, depending on the pattern I chose, it took a while, and I felt rushed because I couldn't finish within the experience time. I hope they can provide a bit more time before the next participant arrives.
Even though I rushed to make the glass, I feel attached to it since it was my first creation. The result this time was the worst, so I plan to go back for a revenge attempt! Thank you very much.
2月19日に江戸切子体験に行ってきました。
浅草駅からすぐなのでアクセスも良いですし、体験料金も良心的です。
江戸切子体験のグラス選びですが、初心者は色の濃いグラスは不向きとの事です。
ですが、どうしても赤か青のグラスが欲しかったので、今回は青にしました。
最初に練習用グラスで削りの練習をやらせてくれましたので、いきなり本番ではなく、心の準備は出来ました。
ですが、選んだ柄によっては時間がかかりますので、体験時間内に終わらず焦ります。
希望としては、次の体験の方が来るまでの余裕の時間をもう少し長く設けて欲しいと思いました。
焦って作ったグラスですが、自分で初めて作ったので愛着がわきます。
今回の出来が最悪でしたので2回うちにリベンジ行きます!
ありがとうございました。

First, I chose a glass and practiced the carving technique. After that, I selected a beginner-friendly design, sketched it out, and carved the glass. I couldn't carve as well as the sample, but I think I did quite well. Even if I made mistakes, I received advice, which allowed me to come up with my own solutions. Those who struggled with carving difficult lines had the staff help them with corrections.
The staff's explanations were easy to understand, and I was able to get started right away. There were also foreigners present, but the instructions were given in English, so anyone can participate.
This time, I used a clear glass included in the experience fee, but next time I would like to try a colored glass for an additional fee. Since the room isn't very spacious, it's better to wear a mask.
まずグラスを選び、削り方の練習をしました。その後初心者向けのデザインから選んで、下書きをしてグラスを削りました。見本のようには削れませんでしたが、結構うまくできたと思います。失敗してもアドバイスがもらえるので、自分なりに工夫してできました。難しい線を削るのに失敗した方は、スタッフの方に修正してもらってました。
スタッフの方の説明がわかりやすく、すぐできました。また、外国人もいましたが、英語で説明されていたので、どなたでも体験できます。
今回は体験料に含まれている無色透明のグラスでやりましたが、今度は有料の色付きグラスでやってみたいです。
部屋があまり広くないので、マスクは着用した方が良いです。
