Edo Kiriko Crystal Whisky Glass by Junichi Nabetani - Meteor Rock 流星ロック (Four Colours)
"Ryusei Rock" (流星ロック) – Meteor Rock
Crafted from layered crystal in two contrasting tones, this weighty rock glass radiates quiet sophistication. Deep, fluid cuts sweep across its surface like flowing stardust, their movement balanced by fine, precise engravings that lend subtle texture. The fusion of bold and delicate detailing forms graceful arcs that dance with light. Its dual-color overlay crystal reveals a distinctive play of hues—shifting and shimmering as the glass turns—capturing the essence of Edo Kiriko craftsmanship in a timeless, luminous form.
Nabetani Glass Crafts(鍋谷グラス工芸社)
Founded in 1949 in Tokyo’s Ota Ward, Nabetani Glass Crafts is a multi-generational glass studio specializing in Edo Kiriko, Japan’s traditional cut glass.
Now led by Junichi Nabetani (鍋谷 淳一), the third-generation artisan and a certified Traditional Craftsman (伝統工芸士), the studio combines century-old techniques with modern sensibilities, creating pieces that balance precision, depth, and expression. Nabetani’s works are known for their bold cuts, rich layering of colors, and the signature interplay of light that Edo Kiriko is celebrated for.
The legacy began with the founder’s dedication to glass artistry, was elevated by the refined skill of the second generation, Satoshi Nabetani (鍋谷 聰), and continues today with Junichi Nabetani and the fourth generation, Kaito Nabetani (鍋谷 海斗), working side by side.
Each piece is handcrafted using high-quality crystal—often sourced from Kagami (カガミクリスタル) or Fukagawa Glass (深川硝子工芸) — and undergoes meticulous cutting, polishing, and inspection. Through their work, Nabetani Glass Crafts preserves the elegance of Edo Kiriko while pushing the boundaries of contemporary glass design.
