Yuki Osako

Yuki Osako is Japanese glassmaker who lives and works in Kanazawa. Graduating from the Toyama Glass Art Laboratory in 2005, she has since gone on to produce tableware that's not only functional, but are also pieces of art that people can use on a daily basis.

She either blows or cuts the glass, depending on the situation, afterwards firing them in a kiln to a very high temperature. Yuki Osako uses a special method of frosting and cutting the glass in unique ways, this leads to a one of a kind object that's visually appealing and a joy to hold in the hand. Yuki's goal is to make handcrafted objects that straddle the fine line between art, design and craft.
