Overview

Traditional Crafts: Kumihimo Braiding and Sandblasting Glass Experience

A Tokyo craft combo workshop with kumihimo braiding and sand-blast glass design, guided by master artisans.

Details

Discover the beauty of traditional craftsmanship on the Kumihimo Braiding and Sand-Blast Glass Design Experience in Tokyo, a hands-on cultural journey through two artisan studios. Guests begin with a sand-blast glass workshop, creating personalized glassware using classic Japanese motifs such as Mount Fuji, samurai, kimono, and geisha designs. Guided by a skilled master, participants design, blast, and polish their own finished piece to take home the same day.

The experience continues in Kagurazaka with a Kumihimo braiding workshop, where intricate silk cords are crafted using time-honored techniques under expert instruction. Located just ten minutes apart by train, these ateliers offer a seamless and immersive introduction to two refined Japanese art forms. Guests leave with two handmade keepsakes and a deeper appreciation for Tokyo’s living craft traditions.

Note: This experience is booked on request. The operator will confirm or reject your request directly.
