Sakura Diamond

January 22, 2021 11:00 AM

Hello!!

This is Yoko from Mokumeganeya.

Today we would like to introduce one of our best diamonds to you!

【 Sakura Diamond 】

Sakura diamond1.png

Have you heard of it?

 The technology which time and effort was taken very much and became skillful since the cut of the T Sakura diamondis cut by skillful diamond cutter.

There are 87 facets, and this is times 1.5 more facets compare to round brilliant cut diamond. And this makes Sakura diamond brilliance finer.

Furthermore, exact symmetry is required in order to express five petals of a cherry blossom beautifully.

※0.25ct~ VS up, F up, Sakura cut is approx. JPY250,000~

※And of course, if you have a budget in mind, please feel free to let us know! We will find a one-of-a-kind diamond in the world for you, according to your budget.

 

As with the round brilliant cut, which is highly regarded by international standards, the value and price of the Sakura diamond depends on its 4C grades.

Do you know what the "4Cs" are?
There is an old saying that an engagement ring is meant to be a gift of a diamond.
This is because the diamond is the hardest substance on earth and is considered to represent the bond between you and your partner.
And because of its unchanging nature over the years, it symbolises the eternal love between two people."Our destiny forever".
It's very romantic, isn't it?
There was a very romantic reason for choosing a diamond as the centre stone...

4C.png

 

Mokume-Gokuya also offers a special gift to those who choose the Sakura Diamond!!

We  provide a "Sakura scope"  for you to enjoy the Sakura diamond,

Can you see the cherry blossom in the centre?
It's so pretty, you'll want to look at it forever.
But in fact, once your eyes get used to it, the cherry blossoms appear transparent even to the naked eye!
 
And we also provide a Paulownia ring box for free!

Meaning of the "Tsunagaru-Katachi"

January 15, 2021 1:44 PM

Hello!

This is Yoko from Mokumegaenya.

 

In Japan, the snow in the Tohoku region is on the news every day.

Did you play in the snow as a child in your country?
 
It's cold, but in Japan, I often see children having Yukigassen"雪合戦"!
It was so much fun and reminded me of how I used to play with my friends and family when I was a kid.
I feel like I want to ski, too!
 
 
 
Today, I would like to introduce to you a wedding ring made with a special method.
We call "Tsunagaru-katachi"
The word "Tsunagaru" is a Japanese word that means the connection between two people.
It means you and your precious partner.
 
Mokumegane is all hand made!
Our craftsmen create each ring from Mokumegane plank, which cannot duplicate again.

Tsunagaru-katachi.jpg
 
Initially, the two wedding rings will be finished once they are connected.
From here, the two rings are shared to complete the two wedding bands.
 
one things to share between the two of you.
Why don't you make a special ring so that you can feel the bond between the two of you in your wedding ring?

You can even leave traces of what was made from the connected shapes!
 
You can leave a simple...
