Glass markers –Aya- were made to allow the enjoyment of Kyo-Yuzen kimono fabric, with kinsai decorations, on the table. Amid the shrinking kinsai market, in the hope of handing down the technique, using it to make a glass marker was brought up to add elegance to the celebration table. A kinsai craftsman who has over 50 years of experience finishes each marker by hand using kimono fabric. The glass markers with auspicious and celebratory design patterns add a touch of Japanese spirit and glamour to ceremonies and parties. The markers are finished with water-repellent coating so liquids can be cleaned away just by wiping the surface. The Japanese traditional kinsai and Kyo-Yuzen items are recommended for use at weddings and other glamorous events.
