Kyōhei Fujita Museum of Glass

Kyōhei Fujita Museum of Glass, Art museum in Takagi, Japan

The Kyohei Fujita Museum of Glass is an art museum in Takagi that displays over 300 glass artworks, including spherical pieces, decorated boxes, and vases shown with specialized lighting. The collection spans different sizes and styles, each presented under carefully controlled conditions.

The museum opened in 1996 to celebrate the work of glass artist Kyohei Fujita, who received major recognition for his artistic achievements in Japan. This founding marked an important moment to honor his contributions to the craft.

The collection reflects how traditional Japanese design patterns continue through contemporary glassmaking, visible in the careful work of each piece. Visitors can observe this connection between old craft traditions and modern artistic expression throughout the displays.

The museum is located inside the Matsushima Ichinobo Hotel and is open during morning and afternoon hours on most days. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and take time to view the lit artworks from different angles throughout the space.

The museum features mirror rooms that create multiple reflections of both the glass artworks and visitors, offering changing perspectives as you move through the space. This design turns viewing into an interactive experience.
