PANORAMA - MIZUHIKI
$421.00
Mizuhiki is a finely twisted paper string about 1mm in diameter and commonly 90cm in length. The black threads are made from Japanese paper (Washi) wrapped in nylon. The coloured threads are made from Japanese paper (Washi) wrapped in polyester. ‘Washi’ is the term to describe paper made by hand in a traditional manner. Washi is commonly made using fibres from the bark of the gampi tree, the mitsumata shrub, or the paper mulberry, but also can be made using bamboo, hemp, rice, and wheat. Each sheet of paper takes months to make and the washi paper is made especially for us in an artisanal fashion by a husband and wife team based in Tokyo. We have used top quality Japanese Mizuhiki - Kazari-Itomaki, which is exceptionally radiant in colour and considerably water and bend resistant. Our extremely talented Japanese craftsmen hand craft each piece, and each piece takes incredibly skill and time to complete. We have captured each square within our new square Panorama case, which acts as a viewing piece, with windows on each side allowing the Mizhuhiki to be fully appreciated from all angles. An exceptional design, featuring a unique, never seen before technique in jewellery. A one of a kind idea. Rhodium plated base metal.
