Had a great time, collaboration special work with Michiru’s porcelains lesson.
It is 5th anniversary of Michiru’s salon, so special anniversary event, Millefiori and Wagashi making.

Millefiori is Italian handmade glass, meaning thousand flours.

Wagashi turned out to be very modern and stylish, which I never thought of before.

Impressive ! This is how they make millefiori.

Beautiful flower arrangement.

bye bye cherry blossom

Finally, cherry blossoms are over. I enjoyed cherry blossoms a lot, but also like ‘after cherry blossoms’. Pink carpet and the moment of transferring to green

So, I tried to express such seasons with Wagashi.

New name of the era ‘Reiwa’

April 1, the name of new emperor’s era was unveiled.
It is a big news in Japan.

“Reiwa” 令和
Reiwa is taken from the old poem about plum blossoms (Manyoshu) with hope for future just like amazing plum flower in full bloom after bitter cold.

Surprisingly, my lovely sister Reiko uses the same Kanji 令子 and this poem is said to be created in my hometown, Dazaifu, Fukuoka.

With these happy co-incidences, I am very happy about new name.

Imaging beauty of plum flower, I made this Nerikiri confectionery.
