Accessories packed with technology that is highly regarded overseas

Throughout Japan's history, butsudan (Buddhist altars) and butsugu (Buddhist ritual utensils) have taken root and developed in people's lifestyles. Kyoto butsudan and kyobutsugu made in Kyoto began to be produced in earnest in the Heian period (794-1185), and today, nearly 70% of their production is used for temples.

Among these, the Buddhist altar fittings housed in temples that embody traditional Japanese culture are truly first-class products. The high level of our technology is highly regarded not only in Japan but also overseas.

We have created a variety of accessories to incorporate the craftsmanship of Kyo-butsudan and Kyo-butsugu artisans into our daily lives. Why don't you incorporate these accessories filled with Japan's proud craftsmanship into your daily life with your sparkling individuality?

Characteristics of Pierced Earrings 2

Design motifs that have the meaning of repelling evil spirits

The design of the earrings is inspired by the Yoraku, a type of Buddhist altar tool used to beautifully decorate Buddhist altars. Yoraku is also a Buddhist altar tool meant to ward off evil. The motif is often a lotus flower, and the tops of these earrings are also finished in a delicate design with beautiful curves. The small charms sway with each movement, adding a touch of sparkle.

The overall impression is more oriental than Japanese, since the "rings" were originally ornaments worn by aristocrats in ancient India. The clear parts attached between the softly colored beige tassels add a touch of glamour. Even the very smallest clear parts are decorated with gold-painted patterns, showing the attention to detail.

The tassels are made of rayon and twisted into a very thin cord. It is moderately voluminous, but does not lose its feminine delicacy. The elegant milky white color and luster also give it a sense of quality. This is a gem that should be used by mature women.

In addition to being highly durable and resistant to deterioration, the surface is also scratch-resistant. It is nice to be able to use it for a long time without having it "discolor while not in use for a little while" like silver.

The earrings arrive in a luxurious black box with the brand's logo stamped in foil. Slide it open and the earrings and pierced ears are secured in place.

There is also a tubular stopper to prevent the tassel tassels from coming apart. When storing the tassels, make sure to attach this tube.

Tassels may pop out of the tassel longer if a little force is applied. If this happens, cut them with scissors to straighten them out. Also, if they become bent or kinked, stroking them with a small amount of water will help straighten them out.
