SHARING CEREMONY

“Tsunagaru-Katachi” (linked shapes) is a concept that creates two rings out of the same billet, or block, of Mokumegane.
You can choose your favorite design and, if you are in Japan, also experience the Sharing ceremony. The “Tsunagaru Katachi” concept has won several awards, including the Japanese “Good Design Award”, the “Reddot Design Award” and the “iF Design Award”. We also won the “GERMAN DESIGN AWARD” and received Featured Finalist from the “IDEA”.
