Have you ever suddenly felt like adding a "story" to your everyday outfits?
This time we will introduce contemporary jewelry using Nishijin weave, a traditional Kyoto craft.
The fabric is made by Nishijin Okamoto, who is responsible for the weaving technique for the most magnificent patterned fabric in Nishijin, the Kinran, which is the most illustrious patterned fabric in Nishijin.
Since its founding, it has continued to produce high-quality weaving fabrics to decorate shrines and temples, and is a true entity that inherits the true skills of the art.
With the desire to bring this beauty and formality to the lives of more people, we have achieved collaboration with modern jewelry makers.
The jewelry is made of luxurious Nishijin woven brocade fabric made from gold and silver threads.
It is made into an accessory that gently emits light in everyday life, while still maintaining the elegance of Nishijin weave.
Furthermore, Nishijin Okamoto is streaming "weave sounds" on YouTube from the production site in order to make you feel more familiar with weaving.
The pleasant sound of the hand-woven and power looms resonates is perfect for quiet nights or relaxing times.
"I would like you to start by touching Nishijin weave first" - this is filled with the warmth of these craftsmen.
