Have you ever heard of "Edo-style wind chimes"?
wind chimes are small bells or bells that make a sound when the wind blows.
They are often hung from the eaves of houses or by windows, and are a popular summer tradition in Japan.
Edo-style wind chimes are made of glass and produced using techniques handed down from the Edo period.
Molten glass is attached to the tip of a special rod, and the glass is formed by blowing it into the air and puffing it up without using a mold.

This time, visitors can experience making Edo-style wind-bells by blowing glass to form the wind-bells themselves, and then painting on the glass.
Even first-timers will be accompanied by an instructor so that they can work with ease.
OAKAHOUSE staff will provide interpretation in English and Chinese on the day.
Why don't you enjoy summer by making wind chimes by hand this year?
If you are interested, please join us!
