TAKAOKA ARTISAN TREASURES
This year, once again, we journeyed to Takaoka. Something in this land continues to call to us: the hushed gleam of brass, the chime of wind bells carrying distant breezes, the dignified presence of crafted objects. Together, they are treasures unlike any other.
Luster
The quiet radiance of golden brass. The distinctive bronze preserved since ancient times. The gentle tin that purifies impurities. The stylish, lustrous copper and the commanding black of iron. Stirred by water, tempered by fire, their brilliance captures the eye.
Sound of Silence
Sounds that evoke silence. The tones of Takaoka are like no other. The lingering resonance of wind bells is eventually swept away by the breeze, while the pure, unending note of the orin bell draws the mind into meditation.
Presence
A whale on the dining table swallowing butter. A loyal Shiba Inu props up the books on the shelf. While the monkey dangles by the window, a peacock waits in the kitchen for its turn. These little guys brighten up your home, just a bit.
