Glass artist Mutsumi Hirai adds excitement to everyday life

Mutsumi Hirai, a native of Okayama, studied glass production in the United States and has been based in Okayama since 2012. She continues to create works inspired by the beauty of everyday life, such as architecture and textiles.

Hirai says, "Because I love using them," and his creations are designed to fit comfortably in the hand and to add color to everyday life.

The MARU series, in particular, is a series that requires many processes, but is characterized by the fact that the frosted glass is restored to its luster and has a finish that fits gently on the fingers.It is a glass that will soothe your mind every time you look at it and use it.
