江戸切子体験 十数種のグラスと数十もの柄サンプルから選べる 講座付きのプランもあり<浅草駅 徒歩3分!創吉浅草店>

I enjoyed it thanks to the polite service! 丁寧な対応で楽しめました!

Reviewed by: かりん

I wanted to create a memorable item for my wedding anniversary with my husband, so I participated in this experience. It started with choosing a glass, and there were so many options that I could select my favorite. The experience included proper practice and clear explanations, which made me feel very at ease. I had no worries about cutting my fingers while handling the blades, so I could work comfortably. The adjustments were challenging, but if anything came up, the instructor was there to help, resulting in a very satisfying finished product. Choosing a difficult design took a bit longer, but they were very attentive without rushing me, and at the end, I was able to take photos at a beautifully lit spot that looked great for Instagram. When I posted the photos on Instagram, I received many inquiries from friends asking where I did this. Given the level of satisfaction, the price is very reasonable!

主人との結婚記念日に何か思い出の品を作りたいと思い、参加させていただきました。グラス選びから始まりましたが、種類もたくさんあり、好きなものを選ぶことができました。体験は練習もきちんとあって説明もわかりやすく、とても安心できました。刃を触っても指が切れたりする心配が全くないので安心して作業を行うことができます。加減は難しいですが、何かあったら先生が手直しもしてくださるので、とても満足できる物が仕上がりました。難しい柄を選んだことで少し時間がかかってしまいましたが、急かすこともなく丁寧に対応していただけましたし、最後にインスタ映えしそうなライトアップした撮影スポットでの撮影もさせていただけました。写真をインスタに載せると、友達からどこでやったのかとたくさん聞かれました。この満足度でこの値段はとてもお安いです!

It's not something a complete beginner can create intricate patterns right away. However, I was able to make a fairly nice glass. I would like to try making it again if I get the chance.

いきなり初心者が難しい柄を作れるものでは無いです。
でも、それなりにステキなグラスが作れました。

The shooting environment for the finished work, created with careful guidance, is perfect! 丁寧な指導で出来上がった作品の撮影環境もバッチリ!

Reviewed by: 名古屋人

First, the instruction is thorough. The staff is refined and polite. You are also allowed to practice properly. For those with presbyopia, reading glasses may be essential.

The finished work can be photographed with the Asahi Beer sculpture visible through the window. There is also a dedicated shooting area with good lighting, which was great.

The completed work is packaged like a purchased product and placed in an original paper bag.

まず指導が丁寧。品のいいスタッフ。練習もちゃんとさせてもらえます。老眼の人は老眼のメガネが必須かも。
出来上がった作品は、窓越しに見えるアサヒビールのオブジェを入れて撮影可能。またライティングがしっかりしている専用撮影場所もあって良かったです。
出来上りの作品は買った商品のように箱詰めされ、オリジナルのペーパーバックに入れてもらえます。

We experienced this with three fourth-grade girls. They were slow to catch on and not very skilled, but I am grateful to the staff who kindly assisted each one of them. We participated because I wanted them to bring handmade items as souvenirs for their homestay family abroad, and I am very excited to see how they will explain it to their family.

小学四年女子三人で体験しました。飲み込みも遅いし手際も悪い、なのに一人一人に丁寧に対応してくださったスタッフさんに感謝です。
海外ホームステイ先へのお土産にと手作りの品を持たせたく参加しましたが、彼女たちがファミリーに何と説明するのか、とても楽しみです。

I had a great experience. I'll get my revenge! 良い経験が出来ました。リベンジします!

Reviewed by: かいで

It was a cozy place with a great view. I hadn't thought about the design, so it was a bit spontaneous, but I had fun. I got a bit discouraged by my lack of skill along the way, but I managed to finish. The teacher comforted me by saying, "You're doing great!" I promised my friend a rematch. I don't know when it will be, but I will definitely come back.

見晴らしのいい場所で、こじんまりとした場所でした。
デザインを考えてなかったので行き当たりバッタリでしたが、楽しかったです。
途中で自分の下手さにへこみましたがなんとか仕上げました。先生が上手に出来てますよ!と慰めてくれます。友達とリベンジを約束しました。いつになるかわかりませんが、また伺います。

A little difficult! But fun! ちょっと難しい!けど楽しい!

Reviewed by: しーちゃん

I participated in a craft experience during my trip. Among various crafts, I found some to be a bit challenging to master. Since you can't redo parts that you've carved away, you need to be decisive. Even if you make mistakes, those become memories... You can choose your favorite glass and design, but the most important thing is to enjoy it without overthinking! There were parts I couldn't do as I had hoped, but I was satisfied with the valuable experience. I want to cherish the finished glass as well.

旅行先で工芸品の体験ものがあると参加している。いろいろな工芸品の中でもちょっとコツをつかむのが難しいものだと思う。削ってしまったところはやり直せないので思い切りが必要。失敗したとしてもそれも思い出ということで… 好きなグラスと好きな図柄を選ぶことができるが、凝りすぎず楽しむという気持ちが一番! 思うようにできなかったところもあるが、貴重な体験ができて満足。出来上がったグラスも大事に使いたいと思う。

My niece gave it the highest rating and said, "Let's do it again next year!" 姪っ子から来年も!と最高評価でした!

Reviewed by: Noji

Every year, my sister and I have an event where we take my niece out to celebrate her birthday without the parents. Now that she’s in the fourth grade, we wanted to do something different from the zoo or amusement park, and although I thought it might be difficult, we participated in an Edo Kiriko glass-cutting experience. I was a bit worried about how much I could understand from the objective explanations given by the instructor, but we didn’t get hurt, and she said it was the best experience yet and that she wants to come back next year! Thank you very much.

毎年姪っ子の誕生日に親は抜きでオバ二人で出かけて遊ぶと言うイベントをやってますが、小学四年になったので動物園や遊園地じゃない何かをと探してて、難しいかもと思ったけど江戸切子の体験に参加しました。
説明をしてくれたお兄さんの客観的な説明をどのくらい理解出来たのか不安に思いましたが、怪我もせず、来年も来たい!と今までで一番いい評価でした。ありがとうございました。

Edo Kiriko Glass Cutting Experience in Asakusa

Perfect souvenir to end a visit to Tokyo

Reviewed by: Mrs L from Surrey

When you have done and seen everything on your ‘must do’ list in Tokyo, this is the perfect way to create your own momento of your visit.

The instructor was patient and knowledgeable about what is required to make your own Kiriko glass, the rest is up to you. There was a good amount of time to practice before you start to make your own cut glass and there are sample designs for you to copy which you sketch onto your glass.

I would not recommend this for very young children as it requires a steady hand and concentration when using the mechanical wheel.

The only suggestion I would make to Veltra is that they send instructions of the venue in map form as it was slightly tricky to find the venue.

All in all a very enjoyable activity for a few hours.

It was easy and fun! It became a great memory. 簡単楽しい!良い思い出となりました

Reviewed by: Patchi

I had a few hours to spare in Asakusa, so I decided to participate. First, we chose our glasses. You can opt for colored glasses for an additional fee. After that, we decided on the design, practiced, and then it was showtime. I was really anxious about getting hurt, but that worry was unnecessary; it was much safer and easier than I imagined.

I don't think the results were particularly beautiful, but it was so much fun, and I was very satisfied. I can already tell that every time I drink from this glass, I'll remember this experience... and I'm really looking forward to it!

(The glass shop on the first floor was also very lovely. I definitely want to purchase something there for a special event.)

浅草で数時間の空きができたので参加。
まずはグラス選びから。追加料金で色付きのグラスを選ぶこともできます。その後はデザインを決め、練習→本番。怪我をしないかとても不安でしたがその心配は不要で、想像より安全で平易な作業でした。
決してきれいな出来映えではなかったと思いますが、とにかく楽しくて大満足。このグラスでお酒を飲む度に今回の体験を思い出すんだろうなあ...と今からとても楽しみです!

(一階にあるグラスショップもとても素敵でした。大切なイベントの際にぜひ購入してみたいです)

Edo Kiriko Glass Cutting Experience in Asakusa

Love for Edo Kiriko Glass

Reviewed by: J_L

The experience was great. The instructor knew a lot of English and was a good teacher; she worked with me to design my own custom piece. I am in love with my new little piece of art and I would recommend this opportunity to anyone who wants an experience different than the tourist spots. (It is a bit tough to find...when you arrive at street level, walk straight ahead about 10-15 feet and turn right onto the street. It looks like an alley, but it is not. Look for small blue signs with the house number. When you find the store that sells glass and crystal ware, you have arrived. The location/house is on your left side.)

I experienced Edo Kiriko for the first time!

After choosing a glass, I received a brief explanation of the machine and then immediately practiced with a practice glass. I was so nervous thinking, "Wait, we're doing it already?" (laughs)

At first, I wasn't very good, but gradually I got the hang of it and was able to engrave my favorite design onto the glass. It was fun to work at my own pace. The instructor was also in a spot where it was easy to talk to them, which made for a very pleasant environment!

Since I made it myself, I ended up with a glass that I feel very attached to!

江戸切子を初めて体験しました!

最初にグラスを決めたあと、軽く機械の説明を受けたらすぐに練習用グラスで実践。
えっ、もうやるの?とドキドキでした(笑)

最初は下手でしたが、徐々に出来るようになって、自分の好きなデザインをグラスに刻めるようになりました。
マイペースに作業できて楽しかったです。
先生も話を聞きやすい場所にいて下さるので、とても嬉しい環境でした!

自分で作ったためにとても愛着の持てるグラスに仕上がりました!

It's difficult‼️ 難しい‼️

Reviewed by: ようこ

The frustration of not being able to carve as I wish. It also requires quite a bit of time and concentration. But even if I make mistakes, the instructor will fix them for me (laughs). In the end, it turned out to be something I was satisfied with. If I do it about three more times, I wonder if I'll get used to it and become better. It turned out to be a nice souvenir, so I'm glad.

思うように削ることができないもどかしさ。そして、結構時間と集中力が必要とされます。
でも、失敗してもお兄さんが直してくれます(笑)
最終的には、満足のいくものになりましたよ。
あと三回くらいやったら、慣れて上手になるかなあ。といったところです。

I had my first experience with Edo Kiriko glass in Asakusa! 浅草で江戸切子ガラスを初体験!

Reviewed by: 50代女性

It took about an hour and a half to create the original glass. It's within a 5-minute walk from Asakusa Station, making it convenient to use during your sightseeing in Asakusa.

First, you choose your favorite glass, consult with the instructor to decide on the design, and then draw a sketch. I opted for deep lines instead of traditional patterns. After practicing the basic cuts, it was time for the real thing! With guidance, I cautiously placed the glass against the rotating blade. Gradually, I learned how to control the pressure and carve deeper, but cutting long lines straight was challenging. After several attempts, I completed it.

It's a great experience, and you get to take the glass home as a souvenir or keepsake. Next time, I want to try traditional patterns as well.

約1時間半でオリジナルグラスが出来ました。
浅草駅から徒歩5分圏内。浅草観光の空き時間にも利用できます。

まずは好きなグラスを選び、先生と相談しながらデザインを決め、下絵を書きます。
私は伝統的な柄ではなく、深めのラインのみを選択しました。
基本のカットを練習してから、いざ本番!
手ほどきを受けて回転する刃に恐る恐るグラスをあてます。
少しずつ力加減が分かり深く彫れるようになりましたが、長めのラインを真っ直ぐにカットするのが難しい。何回か繰り返して完成。
体験が出来て、グラスを持ち帰れるので、お土産や記念になります。
次回は伝統的な模様にも挑戦したいと思います。

Reviewed by: Meg

This was again a very tricky place to find, but in a tiny studio there were 6 stations to work at and 6 students. We were given samples to look at and choose from. It was very tricky, but very doable if you choose something simple. Downstairs was a gallery of glass work that was incredible. Very awesome and well run class. Our instructor spoke English!

  • This was very cool- There were 6 of us and we each had our own station to work at.

My first experience with Edo Kiriko was quite nerve-wracking, but while receiving a lecture, I was able to practice with samples at the beginning, so in the end, I was able to create a satisfying piece!

It took about 90 minutes to complete, and I think even those who are not very skilled can enjoy it. It was a fascinating time that made me want to try creating this pattern... I feel like I could really get into it. This experience sparked my interest in Japanese culture, and I'm really glad I participated.

初めての江戸切子、たいへん緊張しましたが、レクチャーを受けつつ、最初はサンプルで練習もできるので、最終的には満足いく作品が出来上がります!
