Yes it is the Sanyu label :) I believe it is the earlier label as well. So from around 1968 onwards. Lovely piece of glass carol. I have forgotten the chief designers name from around that time but will look it up for you once my hangover disappears LOL...

Great extra information Kane and Kevin, I have bookmarked the Japanese site for further drooling. Many thanks from a warming up day here in NZ- Carol

kane_u_pain:
I have some limited information :)

From 1969 to 1979 Chiyogi Asahara work at Sanyu Glass. There is also a book about his glass out there but I have not been able to locate a copy.

Also, Kunitaro Uchida began studying at Sanyu from 1968.

From 1972 a Katsuhiro Kageyama joined the company.

I am not able to tell who may done the piece though :( But in the future I may be able to as I am gathering contact details for these glass artists.

Hopefully soon I will be able to detail Sanyu Glass Company a bit better for everyone :)

regards from a getting colder New Zealand Carol
