I find beauty in quiet, everyday moments — the small happiness we often overlook.”

Miku’s work explores the layers of color and light that emerge when glass overlaps. Her creative philosophy is rooted in gratitude for daily life and the gentle rhythm of handmade craft. Trained in traditional and contemporary glass techniques — including hot work, kiln work, and cold work — she combines artistry and technical mastery to produce tableware, sake cups, and luminous glass panels that seem to hold sunlight within. 

You'll design your own cutlery rest or small glass piece using the sandblasting technique — part of the “cold work" process in glass art. This involves masking your glass with tape, drawing your design, cutting it with a craft knife, and then etching it using pressurized sand. The result is a delicate frosted pattern that glows when it catches the light. While you work, you'll enjoy a cup of Kanazawa-style roasted tea, a beloved local drink made from roasted tea stems with a rich, soothing aroma.
