The Hananowa pattern, meaning “Ring of Flowers”, was originally introduced in 1976 and is loved for its fresh and cheerful floral design. Delicate white and light blue flowers bloom across the glass, creating a bright and refreshing appearance inspired by the optimism and playful style of the Showa era.
Originally printed on clear blue glass, the design features flowers of varying sizes arranged in a flowing, dynamic composition. The overlapping blossoms create the impression of a ring of flowers in full bloom, while the soft colour palette brings a gentle and elegant character to the glass.
Both charming and nostalgic, Hananowa remains a delightful example of vintage Japanese design, faithfully revived as part of the Aderia Retro collection.

Ishizuka Glass Company's pursuit of glass manufacturing began with an order for vidro sculptures received from a feudal lord. Japan’s first melting techniques opened the road to mass production.
Ishizuka Glass originated in 1819 with the glass sculptures Iwasaburo Ishizuka made in the current Dota area of Kani City, Gifu Prefecture. Iwasaburo started with “vidro sculptures” ordered by the lord of the Owari Domain. Ishizuka Glass grew during the Meiji and Taisho eras, and has continued to wholeheartedly pursue glass manufacturing. They were the first in Japan to mass-produce highly transparent glass, which allowed us to make glassware a “familiar part of daily lives”.
ADERIA was born in 1961 when Ishizuka Glass fully entered the tableware industry.
