Kurata (Kurata Craft Glass) was a line of glass made by Joetsu Glass.

Thank you for the additional info and corrections :)

I've also just noticed that lilac/purple beaked vase that Ross posted in an earlier post!  I have an amber version of that I think. I'm sure I put it on the board and remember there being discussion as to whether it could be Murano or Czech.
I'll have a look for it.

You are most welcome. I am not sure what kind of activity there is on the FaceBook Japanese Art Glass group, as I do not use Facebook, but there has been some discussion on Collectors Weekly by a few collectors of Japanese art glass....

I've become interested in it after coming to realise how many pieces I've had have been Japanese. The lack of information can be frustrating. I've been relying on the same kind of links that are above in order to find out more, but it would be great to have more resources.
I do wonder how much interest there is in their art glass within Japan. There must be collectors I would have thought. Has anyone come across any Japanese blogs or anything like that dedicated to their glass?
