津軽びいどろと職人[青森県伝統工芸士]
Tsugaru Biidoro and Craftsmen[Aomori Traditional Craftsman]

津軽びいどろは、青森県津軽半島の西側に広がる七里長浜の砂から作られて来た硝子細工です。
当初は、漁業網の浮き球をつくるという地味な職業でした。
「宙吹き」の技法で作り、その技術を迂回さらに流麗なガラスの美を創りあげてきました。
紛れもない職人の技です。
物作りには、手先の器用さもひとつ大切ですが、何よりも美を感じる感性が求められます。
そして、それがあくなき探求心へとなり、それに鈍と根気により開花します。
薄っぺらな美の理論では理解できない職人の世界です。
現在の商品群にかからる職人達をご紹介します。
Tsugaru Biidoro is a glasswork crafted from the sand of Shichirinagahama, which extends to the west side of the Tsugaru Peninsula in Aomori Prefecture.
In the beginning, it was a humble occupation to make floating balls for fishing nets.
The technique of "mid-air blowing" was used to create even more beautiful glassware that bypassed the technique.
It is an unmistakable craftsmanship.
While dexterity is an important part of manufacturing, more than anything else, a sense of beauty is required.
This leads to an insatiable quest for beauty, which blossoms with bluntness and perseverance.
It is a world of craftsmen that cannot be understood with a simple theory of beauty.
Here are some of the craftsmen who work on the current product line.
