Collection: KIRIE

We aim to convey the charms of Gifu Prefecture to more people and instill pride in the locals for its attractions.
With this goal in mind, we initiated our activities in 2016.

Commitment to our products:
Seki-city, where I reside, is a town with a strong tradition of swordsmithing, earning it the moniker "town of cutlery." However, over time, the number of swordsmiths has declined, and young people express sentiments like, "There is nothing in this town but cutlery."

Despite having a world-class tradition, it's becoming increasingly challenging for people to appreciate its splendor. I hope that the young individuals who will lead the next generation will come to love this town even more. Fueled by this sentiment, I took up the shears of this town to create something unique that aligns with the current times.

Since I intended to use a local tool, I selected Mino Japanese paper, a traditional craft from the neighboring town, as the cutting material. Mino Washi, still recognized as an intangible cultural heritage, is a traditional craft representative of Gifu, produced from the clear Nagara River and the rich nature of Gifu Prefecture.

Just by looking at the Mino Washi supple, damage-resistant, delicate, and beautiful, I felt thrilled. However, I had an image of Washi = old-fashioned, I strive to create a new design that overturns the conventional image of Washi and is easy to incorporate into modern life.

The sharpness of Seki's scissors is excellent, allowing them to cut through the daily changes in washi, depending on the humidity and the way the paper is made, to give it the shape I desire. The sharpness of the shears varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. The difference is evident, unlike those produced in other prefectures or inexpensive ones.

Presently, I am endeavoring to create works that enable the viewer to feel the texture of washi even more.

We will deliver works that amplify the charm of Gifu Prefecture.

We transport the beauty of Japanese culture from Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan, to the modern age. We aim to deliver HAPPY to everyone with the concept of "Stylish, Convenient, and Good Luck"!

Commitment to Our Products:
The material we use is mizuhiki, a traditional Japanese cultural material. We create and offer accessories infused with positive sentiments such as "good luck", warding off bad luck, and health and longevity. Mizuhiki has been utilized since ancient times as a gift to foster connections and ward off misfortune.

We recommend it as a thoughtful gift for a loved one or as a personal good luck charm. Mizuhiki is exceptionally lightweight, ensuring ease of wear. Its simple and cute design makes it suitable not only for special occasions but also for everyday use.

Each piece is meticulously crafted one by one with heartfelt dedication, aiming to bring a beautiful smile to the customer who receives it.

Senyum" means "smile" in Balinese, just like the children I met on the island of Bali with their sparkling, pure and innocent eyes.

[I want to be impressed by beautiful things, flowers and nature forever.]

With this wish in mind, we create our products using real flowers and natural materials with the concept of "real beauty" in mind.

For flowers, I use domestic and foreign hydrangeas, statice, and hazel, etc. I also dye flowers and shells myself.
