Craftsman Story
Craftsman Profile
DAZAI
A craftsman who creates accessories using the techniques of Tokyo Engraving. Learning from a craftsmen in Okachimachi, a town of craftsmen, he handles all the processes including designing, using traditional handcrafting techniques. The meticulous workmanship, which is so detailed that it is hard to believe that it was made by hand, never ceases to amaze us.
Craftsman Passion
"Everything we do is to make our customers happy and smiling"
From designing to polishing, I handle the entire process by myself until completion. This allows me to spend a great deal of time with each piece of work. While I work on each process, I pay close attention to the design and texture required by the customer. I believe that my customers will love my work for a long time because I put my soul into it, and I finish every step of the process with extra care.
