I've Never Seen Such Cute Jewelry in Japan!

MEXICO "SÁNCHEZ JAPÓN Origin Story

Three sisters run their jewelry stores on the main street of Guadalajara, the second-largest city in the United Mexican States. SÁNCHEZ JAPÓN is the only official brand in Japan, authorized by Flora María, GABRIELA SÁNCHEZ, and CITLALI JOYAS.

Commitment to Our Products:
The United Mexican States is a foreign country approximately 10,000 km away from Japan. In 2014, I visited for the first time, and my vague impression of "danger" was overturned. Instead, I discovered a country brimming with colorful and warm handcrafts.

The jewelry created by the three Sanchez sisters involves meticulous craftsmanship, combining Mexican silver, boasting the world's largest production, with expressive natural stones.

Each piece is handcrafted, giving birth to SÁNCHEZ JAPÓN.

We carefully craft tie-tack pin brooches one by one using the technique of haute couture embroidery.

Commitment to Our Products:
We design and produce our items using Swarovski crystals, beads, and sequins. After graduating from the Luneville Embroidery School in France, I furthered my skills under Victoria Darloti, the recipient of the French Order of the Best Craftsman in Haute Couture Embroidery. Before returning to Japan, I worked as a stager at an haute couture embroidery maison.

“Through printing, we want to deliver happy moments that make you feel rich.”

"THE LETTER PRESS" is an in-house brand produced by "Yamazoe", a printing company founded in 1968. We launched the brand with the aim of conveying the charm of manufacturing, connections between people, and emotions such as joy, surprise, and excitement through printing. Experience the craftsmanship and new possibilities that live on in the long history of letterpress.

Commitment to products
[Products made using old-fashioned printing technology, “letterpress printing”]
Letterpress printing has an indescribable warm texture that cannot be replaced by anything else.
The unique uneven texture, ink smudges and unevenness, and the changing facial expressions of each piece are all created by hand.
These small fluctuations have a charm that goes beyond printing and moves the heart.

Each product is carefully made by a skilled printer using an old printing press with many quirks.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it as a special presence that will remain in the hearts of those who touch it.
