A beautiful pincushion set with 10 color-coordinated glass sewing pins.

The glass container is handcrafted in Otaru, Hokkaido by artisans for a one-of-a-kind pincushion in the shape of a plump flowerpot, complete with a matching needlefelted cushion.

Our partners at Fukugawa Glass Kogei specialize in the intricate Kiriko glass-cutting technique that brings out a flower motif of this vibrant glass pincushion.
The cushion itself uses wool from Hokkaido sheep that is dyed and felted by hand at Kokoromoko, a needlefelting studio run by Mari Sugita. The cushion is removable for extra versatility, as the glass container can also be used as a pen holder, catch-all bowl, or jar for sewing notions and tools.

The heads of the pins are blown from the same glass as their container and then affixed to high-quality needles from Hiroshima that pierce cloth with ease.<\/p>\n

Pincushion<\/h5>\n

The pincushion is made up of the top lid and a wool cushion. Make sure to insert the wool cushion entirely to the hole of the lid so that the pincushion can be stabilized.

\u203bPlease remove all the sewing pins, before inserting\/removing the wool cushion from the pincushion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n\"\"<\/p>\n
Pen holder<\/h5>\n

The base and the top lid without the wool cushion can be used as a pen holder or a vase for a single flower.
\n\u203bIf you force the pen into the hole, it may cause the damage to the glass.
\n\u203bIf the surface of the glass is stained with ink, wipe it off with a soft cloth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n\"\"<\/p>\n
Single flower vase<\/h5>\n

The base and the top lid without the wool cushion can be used as a single flower vase.
\u203bIf the vase is left filled with water for a long period of time, water stains may form.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
