Kyushu Scene: Lalique's genius glassware still dazzling
The glass creations of French artist Rene Lalique (1860-1945) lend sparkle in the Kitakyushu Municipal Museum in Art's Riverwalk Gallery annex. Nearly 200 items, on display until Jan. 28, show Lalique's unique skills in mould blowing or pressing lead-based glass, then cutting or etching designs for jewellery. The museum on the next link is the wrong museum.
Kita Kyushu 北九州市
Kitakyushu, an international, industrial and trade city with a population of one million, was established in February 1963 by the amalgamation of five cities: Moji, Kokura, Wakamatsu, Yahata and Tobata.
How about the KitaKyushu Media Dome! You may see The Beatniks and Ikeda Yosuke there, or Yadokari.
Baseball? Unfortunately the closest team is the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks.
Football? New Wave Kitakyushu. I couldn’t find a bigger team. Oita Trinita and Avispa Fukuoka are nearby professional teams.
Signing off, this is your Message from Japan.また

Enjoyed the images of Lalique's art very much and found the information interesting. Couldn't
view everything due to 'Webmarshal' not allowing me to open some sites. Apparently 'down the rabbits hole' is offensive.
