A Box for your dreams ‘’Kazaribako” by Kyohei Fujita (1921 – 2004) Kyohei Fujita, a pioneering Japanese glass artist, had a significant impact on Western glass art through his unique approach that combined Japanese aesthetics with glassmaking techniques.

He integrated traditional Japanese patterns and motifs, blending them with contemporary glass techniques.
