A Ring Crafted from Edo Shishu and Natural Wood
A Completely New Kind of Jewelry in Your Hands

A ring that harmonizes the natural beauty of silk threads and wood through the art of Edo Shishu. Within the tiny 2 cm circle, the artisans’ refined kimono crest embroidery techniques are intricately condensed. The process begins with in-house thread making, and the detachable part—hand-embroidered by artisans using lustrous silk and pure gold threads—embodies their meticulous craftsmanship. By swapping out the embroidery pieces, you can enjoy the delicate and diverse designs of Edo Shishu to match your mood. Made with natural wood in all parts that touch the skin, these rings are safe even for those with metal allergies.
The ring is meticulously hand-carved from natural wood by skilled artisans, pursuing harmony between Edo Shishu embroidery and the warmth of natural materials. It is a new way to express and enjoy the beauty of nuimon (crest embroidery) as jewelry, with the masterful use of diverse traditional Edo Shishu techniques—including komanui (couching) with gold and silver threads for three-dimensional effects, bokashi-nui (gradation stitch), nuikiri (stitch to the end), Suga-nui (fully embroidered crest), and Sagara-nui (knotted stitch). It also embraces a sustainability concept, allowing the natural texture of the wood to evolve beautifully over time, with packaging thoughtfully designed to be environmentally friendly.
