Handmade Kumihimo Accessories: New Series | Handmade at Handiworks in Kamakura, Kanagawa Prefecture | Blog

We have added netsuke cords to our new lineup of handmade braided cords.

This is a technique in which a thin braided string is sewn together with a main string, and by using this, you can make bracelets and pendants without using metal fittings.

Some people have metal allergies, so we have been trying various ways to make accessories without using metal fittings, and I think this is one solution.
As a braid artist, I feel a great sense of satisfaction when I create items that can be completed using only thread, without the use of other materials.

We would love for you to come and see it for yourself in our store.
