The characteristic of ARABESQUE is the lace-like delicacy created by craftsmen knitting thin wires wrapped with linen and silver thread one by one. There were many requests from customers for linen material hoop earrings in a slightly smaller size, but when it was announced 13 years ago, it was difficult to express the delicacy with linen material, so we developed only silver. I decided.

What changed that idea was the technical capabilities of Yasuko Okayasu, a rattan craftsman who handles ARABESQUE, and Minori Watanabe, who is in charge of material production. Based on the size and design of the pierced earrings, the thickness of the wire and the number of linen to be wound are determined, and the linen, which is short and difficult to twist long, is twisted with delicate finger movements, and the hoop is knitted to a constant length without joints. Mr. Watanabe's advanced technology has brought about a level of quality that has changed the impression of the past, leading to its commercialization.

White that makes the most of the material, and black that Mr. Okayasu dyed himself. And silver has been popular for a long time. The new HOOP mini is a gorgeous and soft item that is woven with reliable technology with the craftsman's desire to please a wide range of customers, centered on designer Okamoto's design.
