This is a work by Kyohei Fujita (1921-2004), a world-renowned glass artist from Japan. This is a solitary glass art piece, "Kazabako," that has been highly praised both at home and abroad. This work, "Kawabako," is an extremely well-made piece. The artist, who has always admired the splendid beauty of the Rinpa school, has recreated the elegance and dignity of Ogata Korin's masterpiece "Kawabakozu byobu" (Red and White Plum Blossoms Screen) in a contemporary glass art style, creating a truly outstanding piece. This masterpiece is a masterpiece of the highest quality, with countless red and white plum blossoms dancing gracefully and decorated with lavish gold and silver leaf. The artist was fascinated by the world of beauty created by Tawaraya Sotatsu and Ogata Korin in the Edo period, and was the person who led the Rinpa school to the world of glass art, and this work also embodies the gorgeous and seductive worldview of the Rinpa school. The sight of red and white plum blossoms fluttering in a fantastical space decorated with glittering gold and silver is a work that proudly displays "Japanese beauty" to the world. With a little ingenuity and decoration, you can easily enjoy a fantastic atmosphere at home.
