About Brilliant Olive Зарфҳои шишагии мизӣ

Тарҳи шохаи зайтун нишондиҳандаи зиндадилии пойдор буда, рамзи сулҳ, хирад ва некӯаҳволӣ мебошад. Баргҳо дар тамоми шохаба ҷуфт-ҷуфт ба таври навбатӣ ҷойгир шуда, нақши марпечӣ месозанд, ки нишонаи афзоиш аст. Баъзе ҷуфтбаргҳо ба дил монанд буда, гармӣ ва оромиро бармеангезанд. Зайтунҳои градиентӣ ламсаи асрорӣ меафзоянд, вақте ки баргҳо ва зайтунҳо ба монанди қисмҳои паззл ҷойгиранд. Аз паҳлӯ нигаристан, баргҳои ҳамбартарашуда нақши мураккаб месозанд. Ҳангоми нигаристан аз боло ва пур кардан бо нӯшокӣ, нақшҳои баргҳои дохилӣ инъикос ёфта, тарҳи дурахшон ва зиндагӣуоре эҷод мекунанд.

Unique Properties
The olive, a symbol of peace, wisdom, and prosperity, is elegantly crafted in Kiriko glass. The design features olive branches with pairs of leaves arranged alternately in a spiral pattern, evoking a sense of growth. Some leaves are heart-shaped, representing warmth and tranquility. Gradient-colored olives reflect humble intelligence. The leaves and fruits are arranged like jigsaw puzzle pieces, enhancing their lively appearance when light passes through. This creates a shimmering effect, resembling living olive leaves, even when viewed from above as a drink is poured.

In optional image #1, the wine glass is 58mm in diameter and 150mm in height, and the sake cup is 60mm in diameter and 60mm in height. The top view of the sake cup is shown in optional image #2.

Production Technology
The double-layered glassware is carefully ground and polished by hand using Japanese Kiriko cut glass technology.
Design Challenge
Specially ordered wide-angle V-cut grinding wheels are introduced. Additionally, precisely applying wheels to the contact points with glass has been practiced and mastered.
Research
Custom-cutting wheels for olive leaves have been implemented. Additionally, wide wheels express the fantastic gradient of olives, requiring precise adjustment of the contact point with the glass during cutting. Advanced techniques are essential in cases where the glass is dark and difficult to see.
Inspiration
Inspired by the serene olive groves of Shodoshima, renowned for its olive production in Japan. Olive trees, revered as symbols of peace, wisdom, and prosperity, have been interwoven with human life from ancient times to the present. Striving to capture the enduring vitality and wisdom that nature embodies, the foundational concept of the design was meticulously crafted.
Project Duration
The project started in August 2024 in Tokushima, Japan, and finished in January 2025.
Operation Flow
The wide-angle V-cut olive leaf pattern creates an intricate, mesmerizing design when viewed from the glass's side. The pattern on the reverse side overlaps with the front, evoking the mystery of life. As shown in optional image #2, when a drink is poured and viewed from the top, the inner olive leaf pattern reflects each other, resulting in a complex, shimmering design as if the olive leaves have come to life.
Patents
The design is applying for design registration and will get copyright in registered designs in December 2025 in Japan.
