Graduated from the Tokyo Academy of Arts, Department of Metal Crafts at nineteen. At twenty-six he entered the Iwata Glass Co. and resigned two years later to establish a career as an independent artist. In 1973, Fujita presented the “Japanese Iris” themed Liuli box (a type of glass). The box was made with a technically complicated decoration that results in the magical jewel-tones. From that point on, the name Kyohei Fujita became synonymous with “Liuli box”. They were the most ornate and magical Japanese boxes in the world.
