Zoey

Inspired by the graceful verticality of Gothic architecture and the intricate geometry of rib vaults, the Zoey collection translates architectural rhythm into refined glassware. Its engraved lines create subtle shifts of light and shadow, giving each piece a clear, distinctive identity. Comprising a whiskey tumbler, two long drink glasses, and a tea glass with a matching saucer, the collection balances modern simplicity with structural elegance. Designed for everyday enjoyment, Zoey brings understated sophistication and a sense of architectural harmony to the table.

Spiral of Life

In a fusion of mathematical structure and kinetic art, the Spiral of Life project presents a new direction for Kiriko glassware. This work captures the organic fluctuation of nature within a glass medium. The development originated from a collaboration between the designer and Ree, a paint dancer. By translating Fibonacci sequences into movement, Ree provided the conceptual framework for the design. Through 8 to 13 and 13 to 21 spiral ratios, the artisan connects traditional craft with biomathematics. The resulting harmony offers a rhythmic experience reflecting the natural pulse of the world.

The intervals of linear engravings are meticulously created, designed with attention to the feeling of grip. In addition to its classic appearance, it has transformed into a timeless design with subtle, non-intense fine cutting engravings.
