Here is a gorgeous pair of crystal sculptures in original boxes from Hoya Crystal Japan, designed by Fumio Sasa.
One is slightly taller than the other and they are is excellent condition. Please note the smaller one has a tiny flea bite chip and very slight scratch on the bottom (picture 6) not noticeable while on display.
Fumio Sasa trained as an architect and was head designer at Hoya Crystal for forty years until the art glass production ceased in 2009.
He was fascinated with the play of light and dark in crystal and for him it offered infinite possibilities of creation
These figures demonstrate that.
Loosely based on the traditional Kokeshi doll of Japan, these figures are made from a quadrant of crystal.
A disc has been cut in the back for the face, and eyes cut into the face. The point of the quadrant has been cut, and into this small flat surface horizontal lines have been cut - from the front of the figures this gives the body a striped appearance.
These figures are so absorbing; they constantly catch the eye and somehow change expression.
