    Saitama Kawagoe-shi Saiwaicho 5-4
    A hands-on workshop on the second floor of a chopstick seller, located in Ichibangai (Kurazukuri-no-tori), near the Saitama Resona Bank. You can try making a variety of handicrafts including glass beads, glass bead accessories, candles, engraved glass pieces, sand-blasted glass pieces, photo frames, candle holders, stained glass accessories, and plush balls. While reservations are not required when the shop is busy priority is given to those with reservations, so it's best to make a reservation before visiting.

    店員さんの説明もわかりやすく、トンボ玉作り未経験の私でもでもあっという間に作ることができます。 作品の仕上がりに待ち時間が一時間ほどかかるので、周辺には風情のある建物や有名店も多くあったので街中探索をしてすごしました。 オリジナルのトンボ玉をお土産にできて、とっても充実した一日をすごせました。 駅からはバスも出ていますが、少しかかりますが、町を散策できるので歩きもお薦めします。

Saitama Areas

Eclipsed by neighboring Tokyo, Saitama is often branded as the sleepy suburbs. However, look a little deeper and you’ll uncover quaint towns bursting with history and crafts from the kurazukuri Edo-period clay houses of Kawagoe to the ancient tree-enveloped temples of Chichibu.
