I-Yamanashi Prefecture iseningizimu-ntshonalanga ye-Tokyo futhi inezinkampani eziningi ezihlobene nobucwebe. Imfihlo yayo? Ikristalu yendawo.

I-Kofu, Japan-Kwabaningi baseJapane, i-Yamanashi Prefecture eningizimu-ntshonalanga ye-Tokyo idume ngezivini zayo, iziphethu ezishisayo nezithelo, kanye nedolobha lasekhaya le-Mount Fuji. Kodwa kuthiwani ngemboni yayo yobucwebe?
UKazuo Matsumoto, umongameli weYamanashi Jewelry Association, wathi: “Izivakashi zifika zizofuna iwayini, kodwa azingezi ezobucwebe.” Nokho, iKofu, inhloko-dolobha yaseYamanashi Prefecture, enabantu abangu-189 000, inezinkampani ezihlobene nobucwebe ezingaba ngu-1 000, okuyenza ibe ubucwebe obubaluleke kakhulu eJapane. umkhiqizi. Imfihlo yayo? Kunamakristalu (i-tourmaline, i-turquoise kanye namakristalu ashunqayo, ukubala nje amathathu) ezintabeni zakhona ezisenyakatho, eziyingxenye ye-geology evame ukucebile. Lokhu kuyingxenye yesiko leminyaka engamakhulu amabili.
Kuthatha ihora nesigamu kuphela ngesitimela esivela eTokyo. I-Kofu izungezwe izintaba, kuhlanganise nezintaba ze-Alps neMisaka eningizimu yeJapane, kanye nombono omuhle kakhulu weNtaba iFuji (lapho ingafihliwe ngemva kwamafu). Imizuzu embalwa uhamba ngezinyawo ukusuka eKofu Train Station ukuya eMaizuru Castle Park. Umbhoshongo wenqaba awusekho, kodwa udonga lwamatshe lokuqala lusekhona.
Ngokusho kukaMnu. Matsumoto, i-Yamanashi Jewelry Museum, eyavulwa ngo-2013, iyindawo engcono kakhulu yokufunda ngemboni yobucwebe esifundeni, ikakhulukazi izinyathelo zokuklama nokupholisha zobuciko. Kulo mnyuziyamu omncane futhi omuhle, izivakashi zingazama ukupholisha amagugu noma ukucubungula izinto zesiliva kuma-workshop ahlukahlukene. Ehlobo, izingane zingasebenzisa ingilazi ecwebezelayo elenganeni elinamaqabunga amane njengengxenye yombukiso we-cloisonne enamel-themed. (Ngo-Agasti 6, umnyuziyamu umemezele ukuthi uzovalwa okwesikhashana ukuvimbela ukusabalala kokutheleleka nge-Covid-19; ngo-Agasti 19, umnyuziyamu wamemezela ukuthi uzovalwa kuze kube uSepthemba 12.)
Nakuba i-Kofu inezindawo zokudlela nezitolo eziwuchungechunge ezifana namadolobha amaningi aphakathi nendawo e-Japan, inomoya okhululekile kanye nomoya omnandi wedolobhana elincane. Engxoxweni ebikhona ngasekuqaleni kwale nyanga, wonke umuntu ubebonakala ukuthi bayazana. Lapho sizungeza idolobha, uMnu. Matsumoto wamukelwa abantu abambalwa ababedlula ngendlela.
"Kuzwakala njengomphakathi womndeni," kusho u-Youichi Fukasawa, ingcweti eyazalelwa e-Yamanashi Prefecture, owabonisa amakhono akhe ezivakashini estudiyo sakhe emnyuziyamu. Ugxile kakhulu ku-koshu kiseki kiriko yesifunda, indlela yokusika amagugu. (I-Koshu igama elidala le-Yamanashi, i-kiseki isho itshe eliyigugu, futhi i-kiriko iyindlela yokusika.) Izindlela zokugaya zendabuko zisetshenziselwa ukunikeza amatshe ayigugu indawo enezici eziningi, kuyilapho inqubo yokusika eyenziwa ngesandla nge-blade ejikelezayo iwanikeza ukukhanya okukhulu. amaphethini.
Iningi lalawa maphethini aklanywe ngokwesiko, aqoshwe ngokukhethekile ngemuva kwetshe eliyigugu futhi ambulwe ngakolunye uhlangothi. Idala zonke izinhlobo ze-optical illusions. "Ngalesi sici, ungabona ubuciko be-Kiriko, kusukela phezulu nangaseceleni, ungabona ukubonakaliswa kweKiriko," kuchaza uMnu Fukasawa. "I-engeli ngayinye inomfanekiso ohlukile." Wabonisa indlela yokufeza amaphethini okusika ahlukene ngokusebenzisa izinhlobo ezahlukene zama-blades kanye nokulungisa usayizi wezinhlayiyana ze-abrasive surface esetshenziselwa inqubo yokusika.
Amakhono aqala e-Yamanashi Prefecture futhi adluliselwa ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane. “Ubuchwepheshe ngabuzuza kubaba, naye uyingcweti,” kusho uMnu Fukasawa. “Lezi zinqubo ziyafana nezindlela zasendulo, kodwa ingcweti ngayinye inencazelo yayo, ingqikithi yayo.”
Imboni yobucwebe buka-Yamanashi yavela emikhakheni emibili ehlukene: ubuciko bekristalu nemisebenzi yensimbi yokuhlobisa. Umlondolozi wemnyuziyamu u-Wakazuki Chika wachaza ukuthi phakathi nenkathi ye-Meiji (ekupheleni kwekhulu le-19), bahlanganiswa ukuze benze izesekeli zomuntu siqu njengama-kimono nezinsiza zezinwele. Izinkampani ezihlome ngemishini yokukhiqiza ngobuningi zaqala ukuvela.
Nokho, iMpi Yezwe Yesibili yaba nethonya elikhulu embonini. Ngo-1945, ngokusho komnyuziyamu, iningi ledolobha laseKofu labhujiswa ekuhlaseleni kwezindiza, futhi kwaba ukwehla kwemboni yobucwebe bendabuko leli dolobha elaliziqhenya ngalo.
“Ngemva kwempi, ngenxa yesidingo esikhulu sobucwebe obuyikristalu kanye nezikhumbuzo ezinezihloko zaseJapane ngamabutho ayehlala, le mboni yaqala ukusimama,” kusho uNksz Wakazuki, owabonisa imihlobiso emincane eqoshwe eNtabeni iFuji kanye ne-pagoda enezitezi ezinhlanu. Uma isithombe siqandisiwe kukristalu. Phakathi nenkathi yokukhula ngokushesha komnotho eJapane ngemva kwempi, njengoba ukuthanda kwabantu kwaba okubucayi kakhulu, izimboni zaseYamanashi Prefecture zaqala ukusebenzisa amadayimane noma amatshe ayigugu anemibala abekwe ngegolide noma iplatinamu ukuze enze ubucwebe obuthuthuke kakhulu.
"Kodwa ngenxa yokuthi abantu bamba amakristalu ngokuthanda kwabo, lokhu kudale izingozi nezinkinga, futhi kubangele ukuthi ukutholakala kwempahla kushe," kusho uNksz. Ruoyue. Ngakho-ke, ukumba izimayini kuma eminyakeni engaba ngu-50 edlule. Esikhundleni salokho, kwaqala inani elikhulu lokungeniswa kwamanye amazwe okuvela eBrazil, ukukhiqizwa ngobuningi kwemikhiqizo yekristalu ye-Yamanashi nobucwebe kwaqhubeka, futhi izimakethe zombili eJapane nakwamanye amazwe zazikhula.
I-Yamanashi Prefectural Jewelry Art Academy iyona kuphela isikole sobucwebe esingesona esangasese e-Japan. Lavulwa ngo-1981. Leli kolishi leminyaka emithathu lisezitezi ezimbili zesakhiwo sezentengiselwano esibhekene nemnyuziyamu, ngethemba lokuthola ubucwebe obuhle. Isikole singakwazi ukwamukela abafundi abangu-35 unyaka ngamunye, sigcine ingqikithi yesibalo sicishe sibe yi-100. Kusukela ekuqaleni kwalolu bhubhane, abafundi baye bachitha ingxenye yesikhathi sabo esikoleni ukuze benze izifundo ezingokoqobo; amanye amakilasi abekude. Kukhona indawo yokucubungula amagugu nezinsimbi eziyigugu; enye enikezelwe kubuchwepheshe be-wax; kanye nelabhorethri yekhompyutha efakwe amaphrinta amabili e-3D.
Ngesikhathi sokugcina ekilasini lebanga lokuqala, uNodoka Yamawaki oneminyaka engu-19 ubudala wayezilolongela amapuleti ethusi ngamathuluzi abukhali, lapho abafundi befunda khona izinto eziyisisekelo zobungcweti. Wakhetha ukuqopha ikati elifana nelaseGibhithe elizungezwe imibhalo eqoshiwe. “Kungithathe isikhathi eside ukuklama lo mdwebo esikhundleni sokuwuqopha,” kusho yena.
Ezingeni eliphansi, ekilasini elifana nestudiyo, inani elincane labafundi bebanga lesithathu lihlala ematafuleni epulangwe ahlukene, ambozwe nge-melamine resin emnyama, ukuze bafake amagugu okugcina noma bapholise amaphrojekthi abo esikoleni esiphakathi ngosuku olwandulela usuku olunqunyiwe. (Unyaka wesikole waseJapane uqala ngo-April). Ngamunye wabo uqhamuke nomklamo wakhe wendandatho, i-pendant noma i-brooch.
U-Keito Morino oneminyaka engu-21 ubudala wenza ukuthinta kokugcina ku-brooch, okuyisakhiwo sakhe esisiliva esigandaywe nge-garnet kanye ne-pink tourmaline. "Ugqozi lwami lwavela ku-JAR," esho, ebhekisela enkampanini eyasungulwa umklami wezobucwebe wesimanje uJoel Arthur Rosenthal, lapho ebonisa ukuphrinta kwe-butterfly brooch yomdwebi. Mayelana nezinhlelo zakhe ngemuva kokuthweswa iziqu ngoMashi 2022, uMnu. Morino uthe akakanqumi. “Ngifuna ukuhlanganyela ohlangothini lwezobuciko,” esho. “Ngifuna ukusebenza enkampanini iminyaka embalwa ukuze ngithole isipiliyoni, bese ngivula esami isitudiyo.”
Ngemuva kokuthi umnotho waseJapan uthuthuke ngasekuqaleni kwawo-1990, imakethe yobucwebe yancipha futhi yantengantenga, futhi ibibhekene nezinkinga ezifana nokungenisa imikhiqizo yangaphandle. Kodwa-ke, isikole sithe izinga lokuqashwa kwabafundi be-alumni liphezulu kakhulu, liphezulu ngaphezu kuka-96% phakathi kuka-2017 no-2019. Isikhangiso somsebenzi se-Yamanashi Jewelry Company sihlanganisa udonga olude lwehholo lesikole.
Namuhla, ubucwebe obenziwe e-Yamanashi buthunyelwa kakhulu ezinkampanini ezidumile zase-Japan ezifana ne-Star Jewelry no-4°C, kodwa isifunda sisebenza kanzima ukusungula uhlobo lobucwebe lwe-Yamanashi i-Koo-Fu (idrama ye-Kofu), kanye nasemakethe yamazwe ngamazwe. Lo mkhiqizo wenziwa izingcweti zendawo zisebenzisa amasu endabuko futhi unikeza uchungechunge lwemfashini oluthengekayo nochungechunge lomakoti.
Kodwa uMnuz Shenze, owaphothula kulesi sikole eminyakeni engu-30 edlule, uthe siyancipha isibalo sezingcweti zasendaweni (manje ufundisa itoho khona). Ukholelwa ukuthi ubuchwepheshe bungadlala indima ebalulekile ekwenzeni umsebenzi wobucwebe uthandwe kakhulu entsheni. Unabalandeli abaningi ku-Instagram yakhe.
“Abadwebi baseSifundazweni SaseYamanashi bagxile ekukhiqizeni nasekudaleni, hhayi ukuthengisa,” esho. “Thina siphambene nohlangothi lwebhizinisi ngoba ngokwesiko sihlala ngemuva. Kodwa manje ngezinkundla zokuxhumana, sesingakwazi ukuziveza ku-inthanethi.”
