Around 50 types of lamps will be on display. Drawing on the full range of Tsuji\u2019s glass work to date, they come in a wide variety of colors, patterns, and cuts.<\/p>\n

\u201cFlip a vessel over and it becomes a lampshade, right?\u201d
\nThat casual remark launched a two-and-a-half-year project. We invite you to discover this first collection of lamps, the result of much trial and error.<\/p>\n

We look forward to welcoming you to HIN Aoyama.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"flexible_message","message_heading":"","message_text":"
\u201cAt our Kanazawa shop, there is a small room called \u2018nest,\u2019 where customers can order pieces. There you can see around 500 types of vessels I\u2019ve made over the years, each in its own original shape, pattern, and color.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The TABLE LAMP was born from a conversation at nest with Sonya, who had dropped by for a casual visit. \u201cFlip a vessel over and it becomes a lampshade, right?\u201d She left me with that mission and went off grinning. And that was when the real work began!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I could work out the glass part somehow, but what I was truly set on was making the lamp cordless. With something this small, a dangling cord would have detracted from its design. I didn\u2019t know anyone in that field, and it took some effort to get an introduction to the craftspeople at GEO ONE DESIGN. At first, we barely had a common language and spent our time feeling each other out. What we did share was the desire to make something good. On my end, I remade the glass again and again to fit the dimensions of the components. I also adjusted the design so it wouldn\u2019t stray from the original image, and asked the workshop staff to work with precision down to the millimeter. Taking on something new brings plenty of struggle, but the joy of seeing it through is all the greater for it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And so, at last, we made \u2018close to you,\u2019 a lamp like a companion by your side. One hundred pieces was all we could manage this time, and I can\u2019t promise when we\u2019ll make them again. I hope that, for everyone who keeps one close, it becomes a one-of-a-kind treasure.\u201d<\/p>\n
