In this episode, Alex Bradshaw of Shimadzu Limited in Kagoshima joins me to talk about Japanese Cut Glassware Satsuma Kiriko.  What are some of the major characteristics of Satsuma Kiriko? How was it first created and how did the production come to an end? What was the motivation behind recreating Satsuma Kiriko? What innovations have we seen since it was recreated 35 years ago? Let's explore the wonders of Satsuma Kiriko together!
