Traditional patterns and craftsmanship skills intertwined, a beautiful and practical Hagi case
The "Pattern of Happiness" series is an original design born from the combination of Japan's traditional patterns that embody the meaning of "wishing for happiness" and a textile designer.
One of the patterns, the pine tree, has been regarded as a symbol of "longevity" because it retains its green leaves throughout the year and endures severe cold.
We have designed a modern style that dyes the good motifs of traditional patterns with a contemporary lifestyle.
✔ Meticulous craftsmanship: Each point is carefully crafted at a specialized Kyoto box workshop
✔ Modern traditional patterns: Enjoy the fun of choosing from 6 types of patterns and 2 colors
✔ Highly practical: Active use as accessory cases, toolboxes, and small item holders
✔ Also suitable as a high-quality gift: "Pattern of Happiness" that conveys special thoughts

Wishes and prayers incorporated into the pine pattern
The pine is a symbol of prosperity
The pine is a plant that Japanese people have long loved as a sacred symbol.
Even in cold winters, it retains its lush green leaves, symbolizing "longevity." The pine, along with the chrysanthemum and plum blossom, has been associated with the wish for "prosperity of descendants."
Since the Edo period, it has been regarded as a plant where gods dwell, depicted on Noh stage backdrops, and pine gates have been made to welcome the New Year god, becoming an indispensable presence in performing arts and seasonal customs.
The powerful vitality and beauty of the pine are still loved by many people today.
The color is a green series with a calm and dignified tone,
A warm two-color exhibition of the orange series. While the colors are well matched, each has its own character, making it also perfect as a colorful item to decorate your desk.
