TAISHO ROMAN collection:
The “Taisho Roman Series” uses the "Aburidashi" technique, which involves the shaping of glass in a patterned mold to create opalescent-colored designs on the glass surface; a technique that gained widespread popularity during the Meiji and Taisho periods. “Roman” derives from the words "romance" or "romantic", that depicts dream, passion, and adventure in the Japanese language. The colors are produced through the exposure of the raw material to a sudden change in temperature during the process of glass heating and cooling at the time of molding. This technique requires a high level of craftsmanship and has become very rare.
