Kuni Kajiwara (b.1947) is a Japanese stained glass artist. She trained at the Central School of Art in London before spending four years as a student at the Swansea Institute from 1977-81.

The window opposite is one of two windows known collectively as the Butterfly windows, in the north wall of the nave of the Collegiate and Parish Church of St Mary, Swansea. They sit either side of the font, around which stands a large metal frame. When seen from the south side of the nave the frame provides the body to the butterfly wings in the window.
