One of them was Asahara Glass Manufacturing.\n In 1903 (Meiji 36), the first generation, Hisakichi Asahara, founded a glass factory in Tomioka-cho, Otaru City, where he manufactured glass household goods such as lamps and medicine bottles. He received a manufacturing request from the Fisheries Experiment Station at the time, and in 1910 (Meiji 43), he devised a method for manufacturing glass fishing floats, which greatly contributed to the herring fishery and the North Pacific fishery.\n It's impossible to discuss the development of Otaru's fishing industry or the establishment of blown glass in Otaru without mentioning these \"buoy balls.\"\n Hisayoshi Asahara taught the manufacturing method to his relatives and expanded Asahara Glass factories (Otaru, Nemuro, Asahikawa, Sakhalin) throughout Hokkaido. However, with the rise of plastic float balls, the scale of his business gradually shrank.\n Currently, Saichiro Asahara is the fourth generation to inherit the family business, and he continues to produce the floats in Otaru Tenjin, passing on the \"float manufacturing\" technique, which is unique in Japan.\n\n\u003chr class=\"g-bd\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"g-hd-l g-txt-c\"\u003e Read and savor.\u003c\/div\u003e\n \"Majime Otaru\" is an irregular column where we speak with Ishikawa, the director of the Otaru City Museum, and delve into the rich history of Otaru.

The carpenter's teachings emphasize \"valuing wood,\" \"using it completely,\" and \"using the right material in the right place.\"  We are constantly seeking the \"right place\" for these salmon boxes, reevaluating and utilizing this material for purposes beyond simply containing salmon.\n\n Furthermore, we visited wooden box manufacturers, sawmills, seafood processing companies, and salmon fishermen to learn about the current state of the fishing, forestry, and distribution industries, including the situation where wooden boxes are being replaced by styrofoam and the decrease in salmon catches. As a result, we are reviewing our production lines, developing products together with manufacturing companies, and creating opportunities to think about the future of primary industries.\n\n From Shinmaki to ARAMAKI. We aim to reflect the food culture surrounding Shinmaki salmon in our products, and to cultivate new richness in daily life, not only through our artwork, but also through everyday items such as household goods and furniture.\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"g-hd-m\"\u003e The History of Asahara Glass Manufacturing Co., Ltd.\u003c\/div\u003e\n Around 1897 (Meiji 30), Otaru had a high demand for glass products as lighting fixtures and storage containers, and there were many glass factories. One of them was Asahara Glass Manufacturing.\n\n In 1903, the first generation, Hisakichi Asahara, founded a glass factory in Tomioka-cho, Otaru City, where he manufactured glass household goods such as lamps and medicine bottles. Then, he received a manufacturing request from the Fisheries Experiment Station at the time, and in 1910, he devised a method for manufacturing glass fishing floats. This greatly contributed to the herring fishery and the North Pacific fishery. It cannot be said that the development of Otaru's fisheries industry or the establishment of blown glass in Otaru can be discussed without this \"floating ball.\"\n\n Hisakichi Asahara passed on the manufacturing method to his relatives and expanded Asahara Glass factories (Otaru, Nemuro, Asahikawa, and Sakhalin) throughout Hokkaido. However, with the rise of plastic float glass, the scale of operations gradually shrank. Currently, Saichiro Asahara, the fourth generation, has inherited the family business and continues to produce float glass in Otaru Tenjin, aiming to pass on the \"float glass manufacturing\" technique, which is now unique in Japan.\n\n\u003chr class=\"g-bd\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"g-hd-l g-txt-c\"\u003e Read and savor.\u003c\/div\u003e\n \"Majime Otaru\" is an irregular column where we speak with Ishikawa, the director of the Otaru City Museum, and delve into the rich history of Otaru.
