Materials: Mizuhiki (decorative cord), BrassRapeseed blossom part: 1.5 cmTotal pin length: 6.3 cm
We commissioned mizuhiki artist motonaga to create accessories in the colors of new tea and fresh greenery for the Kamakura Club Saryo.
About motonaga:Using mizuhiki, I create simple and easy-to-use items for daily life, focusing on accessories.Mizuhiki is a decorative cord made by twisting Japanese paper and hardening it with glue. It has been used in Japan since ancient times for gifts and various ceremonies.I continue to propose timeless items and styles, rather than trendy ones.
About mizuhiki artist motonaga:We have had a connection with Kamakura Club Saryo since before its opening.She expresses the colors of the four seasons in her mizuhiki accessories.She also creates noshibukuro (gift envelopes) and New Year's decorations.
What is Mizuhiki?It is the decorative cord found on things like money envelopes.The color, number of strands, and knotting method of the cord each have meaning, so it's important not to mistake the purpose or etiquette...
It is said that in the Muromachi period (1336-1573), all imported boxes from China were tied with red rope.The Chinese used this rope to distinguish export goods from others, but the Japanese mistakenly understood this as a custom for gift-giving, and began to use red and white cords on gifts in Japan, which is said to be the origin of mizuhiki.
Because it becomes refreshing after the water has been drawn,mizuhiki is said to have the power to purify and cleanse things, and to ward off evil spirits.
Therefore, the act of attaching mizuhiki to gifts and presents holds great meaning and significance.
The same can be said for accessories made with mizuhiki.
For loved ones... for important occasions... as a reward for yourself~
