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。

Excellent staff who spoke good English. The craft itself is interesting and intricate, and I was told about the history of plastic food and the materials used alongside getting the hands-on experience crafting a very realistic Japanese curry. It's an offbeat activity all ages can enjoy, and something very unique to Japan. I found the price very affordable and would recommend anyone to go. 10/10.
Thank you for visiting us.
I am glad that you enjoyed the experience.
I will study English a little more.

I only learned of Edo Kiriko Art a few days before arriving in Japan. I was very excited to see a workshop to make your own glass.the workshop was in English and we were able to practice before making our own creations. They also have a little photo studio set up to take nice photos of your glass afterwards. Overall a very fun experience and have something unique to take home.

Do not miss this amazing experience. Yoshiichiro and Yoshiko take you on a memorable journey into an ancient art form and offer a glimpse into the Japanese culture that most tourists miss entirely. I had seen an article on Kintsugi long ago and the whole philosophy behind it fascinated me so I sought this out when I came to Japan to visit my son. Choosing the right person to instruct you is critical, and this lovely couple could not have been more welcoming. I was greeted with smiles, delicious tea and homemade Japanese sweets and felt right at home. Their method of instruction, with a nice balance between verbal and written instruction in English and hands on demonstration was perfect. And I was given the piece of pottery I repaired, lovingly packaged for the trip home. I am confident I could not have chosen a better option for this activity elsewhere. I plan to continue my Kintsugi learning journey; In fact, I went out the next day and purchased the supplies with the help of Yoshiko and I am excited to begin my first project after arriving home.

I made a reservation on the day and participated. The location was very easy to find; as explained, after climbing the stairs from the subway exit and coming above ground, you just go right and it's right there.
As mentioned in other comments, the instructors were very polite and good at giving compliments (laughs). Before the actual event, we could practice, and they paid close attention to each person. If someone wasn't doing well, they kindly provided guidance on the causes and solutions.
After practice, you choose the materials you want to create. If you want to stay within the basic fee, you can choose a clear glass (there are several shapes and sizes available). If you're okay with additional fees, you can also select a colored glass (prices are displayed on the materials).
The guinomi I chose was 990 yen.
I realized the difficulty of straight lines (vertical, horizontal, diagonal) during practice, so for the actual event, I went with a leaf pattern, which could be done by just pressing it on. Even so, it didn't go exactly as I envisioned, but I enjoyed the process of making it, so I'm satisfied.
Once finished, you can take stylish photos with the light shining on it, just like in the pictures.
It was a great experience.
当日に予約して参加しました。場所はとてもわかりやすく、説明にある通り地下鉄出口の階段を登って地上に出たら右に進んですぐの所です。
他の方のコメントにもあるように、教えて下さる方はとても丁寧かつ褒め上手(笑)。本番の前に練習も出来るのですが、1人ずつ細かく見て下さり、上手く出来ていなければ、その原因と解消方法を丁寧に指導していただきました。
練習後、実際に自分が作りたい素材を選びます。
基本料金内で収めたければ、透明のグラス(形や大きさは数種類あります)追加料金が発生しても良ければ色付きのグラス(価格は素材に表示されてます)も選べます。
私が選んだぐい呑みで990円です。
練習で直線(縦横斜め)の難しさを実感したので、本番は押し当てていれば出来る葉っぱ柄にしました。それでも思い通りにはいきませんでしたが、作る事が楽しかったので満足です。

I made a reservation in the middle of the night the day before. I was scared it would break if I applied too much force, but the glass was thicker than I expected, and I thought that applying the right amount of force was the key. However, I wasn't able to do it well until then, and I wanted to try again. At first, I wasn't particularly interested; I chose it because I could get a reservation, but it turned out to be more fun than I expected.

I used this for her birthday celebration. The instructor was very polite, and the experience itself was excellent! However, despite having made a reservation for two from the beginning, I received a mysterious call two hours before the experience saying, "You will share one seat for two people," and we were forced to alternate using one seat without any prior notice. Fortunately, halfway through, we were provided with two seats because "the reserved person didn't show up," so we were able to enjoy the experience without any issues, but it was a very disappointing response.
The time remained at one and a half hours, and we were charged the regular price while alternating, with no apology or explanation, which I find quite strange. It was very disappointing, especially since the content of the experience was good.
彼女の誕生日記念で利用しました。先生は非常に丁寧で体験自体は最高でした!
しかし、初めから2名で予約していたにも関わらず、体験の2時間前に「2名で1つの席になります」という謎の電話があり、なんの断りもなく1つの席を2人交互で体験することを余儀なくされました。たまたま実施途中に「予約の人が来なくなったから」と2人分の席を用意してもらったため難なく体験できましたが、非常に残念な対応でした。
時間は1時間半のまま2人交互で料金も普通と変わらず、謝罪や断りもないのはさすがにおかしいと思います。
体験内容がよかっただけに非常に残念でした。
[Comment from VELTRA]
Thank you very much for your use of our services. Upon confirming with the operating company, it appears that at the time of your provisional reservation, there was only one seat available for your desired date and time, and we informed you that you would need to share the workspace and equipment. If you did not wish to make any changes, we would proceed with your reservation as is. Therefore, it seems there was a discrepancy between the guidance provided by our staff on the day and what was communicated with Edo. Although we had provided prior information, we sincerely apologize for the insufficient explanation. We have conveyed your valuable feedback to the operating company and requested improvements to our services in the future.

I highly recommend this kintsugi experience to anyone looking to try their hand at this traditional Japanese art! The hosts are kind and welcoming, and work hard to make you feel comfortable. They're also incredible talented at kintsugi, and are excellent at showing beginners how to get started. Despite that, they know an important part of the experience is doing it yourself, and they're quick to pass over the tools and encourage you to give it a try, while remaining on hand to provide any needed help.

It was my first experience with Edo Kiriko. The 90 minutes flew by as I was taught with great care. When choosing a glass from many options, I appreciated learning not only about the differences between the glasses but also about the ease of working with them. Even basic tasks like drawing straight lines and evenly applying patterns were challenging for me, but every time I see the glass after my mistakes, it reminds me of the experience.

We visited a food sample experience as a family. When we asked what she wanted to do during Golden Week, my second-grade daughter made the request. She chose ramen. When she saw the samples on the table, she was amazed at how real they looked and was excited at the thought of making it herself, which left a strong impression on me.
With careful explanations provided, she made her own soy sauce ramen without any help from us parents. Being someone who already enjoys crafting, it was her first time softening wax and vinyl with hot water, and she seemed to have a lot of fun.
The finished creations are now displayed on her desk alongside our curry rice and parfait as part of her collection. Thank you for a fun and memorable experience!

I experienced this with my family during Golden Week. I made curry rice. I had made it once in elementary school, but I hadn't cooked it myself since then, and I don't cook very often. I had a very enjoyable time participating, holding an image of it being a mix between crafting and cooking.
The process involved shaping materials like wax and vinyl using hot water. The explanations, which included historical context, were very clear, and I genuinely enjoyed the hands-on experience in front of me. Following the instructions and receiving compliments on the spot boosted my confidence, and I was able to enjoy the experience all the way to the end.
As I shaped the softened wax while recalling the characteristics of the vegetables I had simmered, I found that the curry roux was more runny than I had expected, and it flowed into areas I hadn't imagined (they helped me adjust it at the end). Those moments remain a fun memory for me.
I highly recommend this as an activity to do with children in the city!

The craftsman I met was very kind and cheerful from the first impression, which made me feel at ease during the experience. While looking at the works, I was able to hear about the history of silver and the profession. The task involved using a hammer to tap the handle onto a pure silver spoon. When I was stamping the letters, there were times when the points were misaligned, causing the letters to blur, making it a task that required quite a bit of skill. However, it was basically just a matter of tapping. I was surprised by the experience of inserting the spoon into ice to learn about silver's thermal conductivity. It was my first time touching pure silver, and I am still happy to have it now. I had a very valuable and enjoyable experience. I also heard various interesting stories. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for visiting our pure silver ice spoon making experience.
I am also very pleased to have received your thoughtful message.
While the time spent in the workshop may seem long yet short, I sincerely appreciate your interest in creating a pure silver ice spoon through our 300-year-old Edo traditional techniques, learning about the history of silver, the profession of "ginshi" (silver artisans), and conducting experiments to understand the thermal conductivity of silver by inserting the spoon into ice.
Moving forward, we are committed to honing our skills as "ginshi" to pass on the culture of Japanese traditional crafts to the next generation. We will strive to foster greater interest in traditional crafts through our workshops.

In the classroom, there was one teacher, a large window, and many sandblasted glass artworks displayed. First, we chose the shape and color of the glass we liked, and then selected a sticker design for the pattern. There were various shapes and designs available. We attached the pattern sticker to the glass and cut around the pattern with a cutter. The teacher carefully taught us everything, including how to cut the pattern and handle the tools. Once we finished cutting the pattern, we used a device to blow sand onto the glass. We blew sand until the area around the pattern turned white, carving the glass. We wore thick gloves on both hands and operated the pedal with our feet to blow the sand. It was a simple method, but I thought it was quite a deep task that required some skill. After finishing the carving, we washed the glass with water and dried it with a towel. Next, we made a coaster out of origami. The teacher patiently guided us through the folding steps. We placed the glass on the coaster, and it was complete. The teacher was very easy to talk to, friendly, and enjoyable, which made it great to work while having fun conversations. I was able to talk about various things and create sandblasted glass, which was a very valuable experience. Thank you very much. I would like to try making a plate next time!

You've created a beautiful lapis lazuli-colored glass. You chose a design centered around ocean patterns, and the cuts were so well done that I could watch with ease. It looks even more beautiful when filled with beer or orange juice.
I also enjoyed our conversations. It's a bit far, but please come again with your friends.
I hope you'll challenge yourself to try making a plate next time! I look forward to seeing you again.

ささゆかさん、たくさんのコメントとお写真を投稿頂き感謝申し上げます。
作り方の手順もわかりやすくご説明頂きありがとうございます。
素敵な瑠璃色のグラスが完成しましたね。海の柄を中心に選んで頂きましたが、カットが上手でしたので安心して見ていられました。
ビールやオレンジジュースを入れると一層きれいに見えますよ。
私も色々お話ができて楽しかったです。少し遠いですが、またお友達といらしてくださいね。
是非、今度はお皿にもチャレンジしてみてください!お会いできることを楽しみにしております。

I brought my own pottery and had a wonderful experience. I'm completely satisfied with the repairs; I'm glad I did it. I think it would be great if the website allowed comments about bringing your own pottery during the application process, so I hope they consider this improvement. For some reason, the images I attached during the application were not confirmed by the other party.
However, I was told that anything can be fixed, and I'm happy that my precious pottery was repaired. While enjoying tea in a relaxed atmosphere, I received a man-to-man lecture, and the instructor carefully handled the parts that needed to be solidified with plaster. I experienced the process starting from the point of sanding. It took a full two and a half hours, but the instructor supported me with my clumsy parts and praised me in various ways, which kept me in a good mood to continue. We also enjoyed various conversations about pottery along the way. Just chatting would have been enjoyable enough.
The pottery in the photo was originally broken in half with a piece missing, but it has been completely restored. After drying for another two weeks, I will wash off the excess powder and it will be finished. I'm really looking forward to it. They also prepared containers for taking the pottery home, and since all the tools were provided, the experience was very satisfying compared to the ease of it. The aftercare is also thorough, so I'm already considering doing this again. I highly recommend this not only for the kintsugi experience but also for anyone who wants to repair their precious pottery.
器を持ち込んで体験しました。すっかり直って大満足、やってよかった。申し込み時にサイトでは器の持ち込みをコメントできるといいと思います、改善を検討してください。申し込み時に添付した画像も何故か先方で確認できていませんでした。
でも、何でも直せるという事でした、大切な器が修理できて喜んでいます。和やかにお茶をしながらman-to-manでレクチャーを受け、欠けた部分を石膏で固めところまでは先生がしっかりとやってくださって、削るところから体験しました。2時間半たっぷりかかりましたが、不器用な部分は先生がフォロー、色々褒めてくださるので、良い気分で続けられます。途中色々な器に関する四方山話も愉しく。お話だけでも良いぐらいです。写真の器、元は真っ二つに割れて一部欠けていましたがすっかり戻っています。あと2週間乾かしてから余計な粉を洗い流して、完成。待ち遠しい限りです。持ち帰り用に容器の準備もあり、道具は全て貸してくださるので、お手軽さに比べて満足度が高くて、充実した体験です。アフターフォローもしっかりしているので次もまたと考えているくらいです。金継ぎ体験だけでなく、大切な器を直したい人にもオススメです。

I had my first experience with Edo Kiriko. I struggled throughout, but thanks to the practice I was allowed to have and the careful instruction I received, I was able to express a beautiful Edo Kiriko pattern. Although it turned out to be far from the design I had envisioned, I ended up with a unique piece that I am very satisfied with. If I have the opportunity, I would love to try again—I really got hooked!
初めて江戸切子体験をしました。終始苦戦しましたが、練習をさせていただくことができ、また丁寧に教えてくださったため、素敵な江戸切子の模様を表現できました。
思い描いていたデザインとは程遠いものとなりましたが、逆に個性あふれる作品ができ、とても満足しています。
もし機会があれば、再挑戦したいと考えるぐらい、ハマりました!

I was a bit worried that Edo Kiriko would be difficult, but the craftsman taught us carefully, so even beginners could enjoy it! I was very satisfied with the beautiful cup I made. I thought it would be nice to give it as a gift to friends or family for anniversaries or birthdays. I want to go back and make more, and I would recommend it to my friends. Thank you!
江戸切子は難易度高そうだな〜と少し心配だったのですが、
職人さんが丁寧に教えてくださるので
素人でも楽しみながらできました!
素敵なコップが作れて大満足です
記念日や誕生日に友達、家族にプレゼントするのもいいなって思いました。
また作りに行きたいですし
お友達におすすめしたいです
ありがとうございました!

I had the opportunity to experience Edo Kiriko with my two children. The kids didn't know much about Edo Kiriko and seemed to have low expectations. It was supposed to last an hour and a half, but once we started, they enjoyed it with serious expressions. The time flew by. After a year and a half of not being able to go anywhere due to COVID-19, spending an hour here was very fulfilling and created wonderful memories.
子供2人と一緒に江戸切子体験をさせて頂きました。子供達は、また、江戸切子を知らず、余り期待していなかったようです。1時間半もーといった具合でしたが、いざ!始まると、真剣な眼差しで楽しんでいました。時間もあっという間に過ぎてしまいました。コロナの中どこにも行けない1年半でしたが、ここでの1時間あったは、とても充実した時間を過ごすことが出来また、楽しい思い出となりなました。

I was guided in early, but it seemed like the staff was busy working. There was no greeting, and they remained silent the entire time. The young person who guided the experience was also working while providing instructions, which felt insincere. This is the lowest standard for customer service. If they are doing this to survive, they might be skilled workers, but they should think a bit more about their approach. If they can't do that, they should stop trying to make a quick buck with such experiences.
まず早めに案内されましたが、お店の方らしき方か作業されてました。
挨拶もなく、終始無言。
体験も若い方が教えてくれましたが、作業しながらと不誠実な対応。
接客業としては最低。生き残る為にやってるなら、職人かもしれないがもう少し考えるべき。
それが出来ないなら、こんな体験で小銭稼ぎを止めるべき。
Thank you for visiting us.
We sincerely apologize for the lack of greeting. We will confirm the facts and strive to ensure that this does not happen again in the future.
Regarding the work during the experience, we have received many positive comments from customers, such as "I'm happy to see the craftsman's valuable work" and "I can understand the difference in techniques by experiencing it myself."
If you do not wish to have the work during your experience, we would appreciate it if you could let us know during your next reservation or at the time of the experience.
We look forward to your next visit.
この度はご来店いただきありがとうございます。
ご挨拶がなかったとのこと、大変申し訳ございません。事実関係を確認し、今後このようなことのないように努めて参ります。
また体験中の作業につきましては、多くのお客様から「職人さんの貴重な作業姿が見られて嬉しい」「自分も体験して見ることで技術の違いがわかる」などお喜びの声をいただいております。
もしお客様が体験中の作業をご希望でない場合は、次回ご予約時、ないし体験時にお申し付けいただけますと幸いです。
またの機会のご利用をお待ちしております。

I made it for the first time. The teacher praised me a lot, and I was able to enjoy making it! Time flew by, and I was worried I wouldn't finish in an hour, but I managed to complete it somehow! I arrived about five minutes early and was able to choose the glasses and other items in advance, so I felt like I made it just in time (laughs). It's a great memory, so I recommend it! ♪
初めて作りました。先生がたくさん褒めてくれて楽しく作ることが出来ました!
時間はあっという間に過ぎていて1時間過ぎて終わるか不安になりましたが何とか終わることが出来ました!5分程早めに行ってグラスなどを先に選ばせてもらってたので間に合った感はありますが(笑)
いい思い出にもなるのでオススメです♪
