Satsuma Kiriko is a traditional cut glass (colored glass) from Kagoshima Prefecture, developed by Shimazu Nariakira, the lord of the Satsuma domain, as part of his industrial promotion efforts in the late Edo period. It is characterized by the layering of thick colored glass over transparent glass and the expression of gradation (blurring) through deep cuts, resulting in a heavy and beautiful color. Once a "phantom kiriko" whose techniques were lost, it has been revived in modern times, and its vibrant colors and delicate cutting techniques are highly regarded both domestically and internationally. 〈History〉 Birth and Extinction: Developed by Shimazu Nariakira in the early 1850s and produced in the late Edo period, production ceased in the 1860s due to the Anglo-Satsuma War and the sudden death of Nariakira. Revival: After about a century, it was redeveloped and restored in Kagoshima from the 1970s. Compared to Edo Kiriko, Satsuma Kiriko is characterized by being "thicker and having a gradation (blurring) where the color fades." It is a craft item that is used in modern lifestyles, such as glasses, sake vessels, and plates.
