Now they produce over 4,000 beautifully designed glass pieces with 40 glassblowers for global distribution. Sugahara glassworks are truly world-renowned, largely in part to the company's practice of having their glassblowers also act as their lead designers behind their collections - a rarity in the glass-works world.
