Blue Glass Balls
Blue Glass Balls
Introduction: "Blue glass balls" were once decorative ornaments used on the clothing of ancient Mesopotamian nobility. In ancient times, they were introduced to Japan via the Silk Road and later developed in Osaka. Here, they are still made in traditional ways. These uniquely patterned blue glass balls are a rather popular souvenir in Osaka.
They are available at the souvenir shop inside Osaka Castle's keep.
