History

We created Tsugaru Vidro and sublimated it into traditional Japanese crafts

HOKUYO GLASS is a glass workshop with long history in Aomori Prefecture, founded in 1949 as a factory that manufactures floating balls for fishery.

At that time, there were other companies that manufacture floating balls, but our products differentiate in quality, high enough to receive the assurance.

In 1977, "Tsugaru Vidro" was created by utilizing the technique of "Spray Blowing" cultivated through the manufacture of glass floating balls.

After that, craftsmen paid much attention to technology development, and continued to learn high proprietary proportions of raw materials that produce beautiful colors on glass material.

We constantly strive to acquire new technologies and development, and now we are certified as Aomori prefecture traditional craftsmanships.

Characteristic

Green glass born from coincidence, Top Secret Raw Material Recipe

Originally we made colorless transparent glass, but when a craftworker added sand of Shichiri Nagahama (Aomori Prefecture) famous as a scenic spot, a wonderful green glass was born.

Then the craftsmen were absorbed into creating new colors.

Tsugaru Vidro that was born like that is often described as "handmade glass thatexpresses the seasons of Japan".

Its characteristics lie in a soft warm color that is born by its own unique formula.

We use more than 100 colors produced by craftsman's longtime intuition and experience, to express the colors of the four seasons unique to Japan.

By combining various colored glasses, we express the powerfulness, pleasure and transience of the dazzling scenaries of each season.

For Customers

Tsugaru Vidro continues to evolve with new sensibility

Although many cheap glass products made abroad are imported, we have differentiated by sticking to handicraft at North Glass and aimed at "making glass for enriching our lives".

"Being handmade" is not manufacturing permission for goods or compromise, but rather manufacturing with manufacturing that it is in order to explore technology and enhance value.

Recently, the number of female craftsmen has increased, and product developments with newaesthetics such as vases and oil lamps are also progressing, expanding the possibilities of Tsugaru Vidro.

It is our Tsugaru Vidro that we manufacture with craftworkers who make colors, blow glasses, polish and finish, do inspections.

Please enjoy our Tsugaru Vidro, expressing the beautiful Japanese scenaries from four seasons.
