A stained glass wall hanging representing the “Nuruyu Kokeshi” featured in “To the Deep Blue Forests,” the stained glass installation at Aomori Airport.
Just like the original artwork, each piece is carefully handcrafted by artisans at CREARE Atami-Yugawara Studio using “Antique Glass”—a traditional hand-blown glass with roots in medieval Europe.
Please enjoy the world of “To the Deep Blue Forests” as you are wrapped in the warm, rich colors of antique glass.
