▶Craftsman Profile
Shigeki Fujimura / Fujimura Tombodama Studio
In the present day, the majority of tombodama (Japanese glass beads) are made using modern equipment such as gas or oil burners and lamps, utilizing pre-made glass. However, when it comes to restoring especially ancient beads, the limitations of using pre-made colored glass become apparent. Shigeki Fujimura's Tombodama Workshop adheres to the traditional methods of the Edo period, as intended by the predecessor, creating colored glass from scratch and finishing the beads entirely with charcoal fire. It is the only workshop that continues to replicate and preserve these ancient techniques. The depth of the colors achieved through this traditional method emits the cherished brilliance loved by people in ancient times.
▶Craftsman Passion
"Creating exceptional products with a commitment to the beauty of the ancient world without ceasing to be beautiful."
We produce all of our dragonfly beads by hand, one by one, using a traditional method that has been in use since the Edo period.
Please enjoy the deep coloring unique to the traditional crafting method.

This necklace is made of jade-colored dragonfly beads. It is threaded through a leather cord and the size can be adjusted. It uses the flower-patterned dragonfly beads that are representative of the work of Tombo Dama Studio Fujimura. Crystal glass is used for the glass, and it has the unique weight and glittering beauty of crystal glass.
Charcoal is used throughout the entire process, from the production of the glass fabric to the wrapping of the colored glass around the glass core and the application of the patterned parts.
The natural temperature fluctuations brought by the charcoal fire create depth, resulting in unique, charming, and expressive dragonfly beads.
The texture is also one of the characteristic of this craft, and by increasing the ratio of pigments, the contrast of the patterns is enhanced, resulting in a thick, rich color.
I think beads are greatly underestimated. They go back in time forever. We can trace their geographical and economic history and geography through beads. I love them to bits and regret that most people don’t recognise what intricate workmanship goes into them.
A lot of people say that CZcams is a waste of time and I'd beg to differ. I've done a lot of jobs in my life. But I've never seen the process of making colored bead glass. It's amazing. I'm so glad I clicked on this video❤
Thank you for your comment!
CZcams is also a kind of study method depending on how you use it. If you don't think it's a waste of time, I think it's a useful content. Please keep watching our videos.
This is some caveman primitive techniques Boring AF
Your CZcams experience is what you make it! Seeing craftspeople producing lovely artistic things, is a joy to watch! Glass blowing and precious metal jewelry making are beautiful to watch!
Who knew so much complex work went into such a tiny stictly decorative object? Amazing!
@@SOLDGREENthen click it off...no need to be a nasty troll.
Wish we'd had CZcams when I was a kid. Brilliant.

How skilled this man is and how beautiful the beads are too.
My wife and I were mesmerized. She makes bead necklaces, and sometimes I help her make them. The millefiori are my favorite. I imagine that 1,000 years ago a craftsman that could do this could make a very comfortable living. ;)
It’s great seeing things done by hand and not by machine and with this a 400 year technique that’s still going strong, hopefully it’ll continue for another 400 years by such skilled craftsmen.
I had no idea. What craftsmanship, I will be far more attentive should I see glass beads in the future.
こんなに長い工程を経て、１つの作品が出来上がる事に驚きました。素晴らしい技術ですね。これからもずっとずっと残っていて欲しいです。
In the West this type of beadmaking is called 'Lampworking'. We use different tools, different glass and a variety of different ways to access the fire!
Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
あの模様ってこうやって付けてたんだ。繊細な作業だ
As i made jewelry, i am always interested in how besds are made. Those beads are stunning
It's beautiful.
It takes so much time to make it.
The beauty of glass beads does not deteriorate over time.
Thank you so much!!
You can see in the video how many different outfits he wore. So many days of work and so much patience for such a small thing. Well done Sir!
The man was having to make the glass he was going to use in making beads. From adding color to the glass to stretching it into rods of one color to making the rods with the design in the center, he was doing everything to prepare for just having the material to make the beads. Once all that is done, each bead will take around 30-40 minutes to complete. And as you can see he was able to make quite a few beads from the glass he prepared.
After seeing the beads he made with the materials my estimate of the time it took to make the beads was off. If they were complicated beads it would be 30-40 minutes. These would have taken a shorter time. At least it would not have taken me that much time to make each of the beads he made. One of my focal beads which are very decorated would have taken 30-40 minutes. His beads, maybe 25 minutes. I was very impressed when he was making the glass rods he used to decorate his beads. Especially since he had to use primitive equipment. It is a very time consuming thing to make those rods with the decorative centers. Even with modern equipment it takes time. I am going to have to watch this video again because it is the first time I have seen the process of doing it with the equipment he was using and I might learn something new from it.
So beautiful 🙌🙌🥰❤️🧚♀️
He sells those beads for about $105 USD a piece. I saw a necklace made of the green beads he makes in the video for 3k
To me, the process is as beautiful as the product. I am in awe of these skills. You could write it all down, make videos such as this, but you couldn't do it without the skill.
I didn’t expect the end product to be so impressive and beautiful. Truly fine work.
I had this absolute pit in my stomach, thinking I bet these amazing pieces will sell for $20 each. The prices I saw on your website made me so happy! Worth every single dollar 💜
This is an incredible process. It's bc of videos like this, that I started crafting again. I would rather have a happy simple life doing what I love instead of living a fast paced cluttered one. ❤😊
Ty for sharing.
The quality and beauty is breathtaking.
구슬하나만드는데이렇게손이가는줄몰랐어요..집에있는유리제품들더소중하게생각해야겠네요..
잘봤습니다.
This took an incredible amount of patience And effort to create something so beautiful. You really have to appreciate the craftsmanship.
My gosh, I never knew.
I love beads even more now, wow.
Beautiful.
As someone who likes to make handmade jewelry, seeing the process behind these beautiful glass beads is so interesting! The outcome is so stunning💚
Очень кропотливая работа и такая прекрасная и красивая вещь получилась! Браво! 👋👋👋
As expected, Japan is amazing. I am proud of the culture that preserves traditions.
Korea is not enough with the culture you passed down during the colonial period.
For the first 90% im thinking" what is he doing"? Then it comes together. Wonderful craftmanship
I love using glass beads for jewelry and lacemaking projects! It's so cool to see someone making them by hand
At first it doesn't seem to make sense. So much layer that looks almost like taffy Candy. But toward the end it starting to make sense. What an Art & work to look pretty.
So lovely! I will never look at a handmade bead the same again. So glad you showed us. Never knew how enjoyable to watch.
What a fantastic skill! You could have an exhibition at the Japan House in São Paulo, Brazil. It was a pleasure to watch your video! I could smell the glass melting with the pigment, feel the heat of the kiln... The world needs beautiful things.
(In the 1980s I studied jewellery with Enid Kaplan, who referred me to her Master Fujimura at his school in Florence. I worked with enamel for 20 years).
All the best
The glass beads feel wonderful when you run your fingertips over them...or indeed twist them around on their string...
The gentle clinking of the glass sounds like a gentle breeze flowing through a windchime...
I so enjoyed the "flowers opening up" when pressed...
Wonderful craftsmanship altogether...
Thank you Sir...

素晴らしい！見入ってしまいました❤
アーティストの作品。👏👏 よくやった先生😊
Thank you for this beautiful video. Glass beads are an art form, a very old tradition.
How BEAUTIFUL ! Thank you for showing your beautiful artisan beads ! 😊❤
와우 400년전에도 유리가 있었다니 놀랍네요.
만들어진 유리를 녹여서 구슬을 만들다니 대단합니다.
A very difficult process but beautiful outcome. I have worked with small Glass beads in embroidery after watching my mother's skills for same.
These beads are gorgeous. You are a true craftsman
Just beautiful. I so appreciate the art and craftsmanship. Thank you for making this video.
Wow! How beautiful! I never thought that making beads would be this much work. But now I understand how the design comes in place!
ヘラで押し潰した瞬間、花模様が出てきたのすんごい。
The energy price and the time spent to craft this make it surely very expansive.
On the website, I see that for one or two on a lace it is really very expansive.
Incredible work. Very beautiful.
I enjoyed watching you create art. Beautiful beads. My best to you Sir. Thank you for sharing your art.
Fascinating and intriguing. Your artistry is wonderful. These traditional skills are often lost now. Wonderful to see them shared with the world.
Un maestro de el arte, felicitaciones Señor 🤍🇦🇷🕊️
Very beautiful and unique talent!! I watched it all!! Thank you!!!❤️🇺🇸
Stunning work ❤❤❤
Excellent technique! Thank you! With love from Russia
I didn't expect 1 bead to be 220.00 but with the skill and time that goes into these handmade beads, I can definitely understand why. I'd love to learn this amazing craft. Excellent job sir!!!
I do not understand the people who say it is too expensive for such a small thing. I myself get 60€ per hour for my IT work IF I sell these hours(and i am the cheapest in my vicinity). So if you count the hours of work behind one bead, it is cheap. So I do not mean you, but everyone else who does not see that the price is reasonable.
I admire your work!
Magnífico! todo un artista.
A true artist, beautiful work, beautiful process.
I could never do glassworking. I'd always be like 'wow, the glass is so malleable and awesome when it's hot... maybe i could just touch it for a *second* and see what it feels like????'
飴を作ってるみたいで美味しそうに見えてしまいますね😊
That was the most amazing process I’ve ever seen! Now, how in the world are seed beads made??
I had no idea they had dremels 400 years ago. Amazing!
So beautiful, what a labor intensive art! If i didn't see the title of this video, i would have guessed the beads to be painted or enameled jade beads. Thank you for this beautiful traditional art form.😊
Thank you for the beautiful beads u make for us who makes jewellery and other stuff with the beads❤❤❤
it is so relaxing when there is no music .
Maravilhoso trabalho
Interesting no wonder these beads r so expensive to buy for jewelry making. Thank u for sharing. 👍😊
Glass looks yummy
Здравствуйте, Мастер!
Я Вам желаю здоровья и много лет, в Вашей нелёгкой жизни.
Для этой работы нужно времени и сил.
😊
😊
Your beads are beautiful…a lot of work and experience goes into them.
I recently bought some glass beads to hang in my window…and will appreciate them more, now I know how they’re made.
Estos trabajos son los que me hacen entender que la artesania tiene un alma milenaria. Siento que aprendo algo que solamente estos maestros artesanos te hacen(sentir) entender .. mil gracias.
so beautiful!! great craft!
Даже не представляла какой это не лёгкий труд. Каждая бусина требует столько труда, фантазии. Спасибо за видео, очень интересно. Результат восхитительный.
Желаю здоровья!
Удачи в творчестве!😊
Wow! A lot of work going into every bead. Brilliant!!! 👌👌👌👌😊
우와 이만큼의 수고로움 이라니 참으로 경이롭다.
Wow, such a time-consuming process. Beautiful items.
So Cool to Watch!
Wuuooh‼️ que maravilla, no sabia como se hacen... 🤩 es asombroso su trabajo y con la paciencia que lo hace , bien 👍🏼
This is a incredible craftsmanship.
Que lindo trabalho!❤
Amazing craftsmanship. A lot of work goes into those beads!
Beautiful. A true labor of love.
magical work! I'm in love with these beads
What an incredible process! 😮
The temperature differential stretching is masterfully done.
true artist
Beautiful work created by a very talented craftsman.
This is why lampwork glass beads are so expensive, just the amount of time it takes to make them is most of the price.
❤ beautiful, so incredible to see the time and skill that goes into these gorgeous beads ✨😍
なんかおいしそう。
伝統工芸は作っている映像も含めて芸術だと思っている。
この動画を見られたことは私の人生の大切な1ページになったかもしれん。
I would never guess that the coloured glass being melted, fused together, and cut into tiny pieces would be used to make those beautiful flower patterns.
Завораживающий процесс! Браво Мастер!!!
Thank you so much!!
Amazing!! I do some flamework, and this js a process I have never seen .. so cool. Thank you for sharing!
I like the full focus and dedication to make the beads.
Amazing and amazingly beautiful 😍
Complimenti 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 lavoro fantastico!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
It's interesting to see how many of the fundamentals of modern glassblowing are in place in this very old process.
this cat spins glass just like candy makers. that's freakin awesome 😆👉
Parabéns pelo belíssimo trabalho!👏👏👏👏👏
Wow I didn't know each bead takes so much work.. Incredible
Niesamowite, jaka duża cierpliwość. !😊
Increíble,es usted todo un genio❤
Beautiful! 🥲💕🙏🏾🌺
That was amazing! I have watched many glass blowers, but your process is the most intricate and amazing.
Wow..very beautiful..but lots of hardwork.❤👍👏👏👏👏
watching it reminds me of how hard candies are made! such a wonderful process to see.
