<Obidome>

This is an asari clam shaped “Obidome” created by Sounyusai Yoshida in the late Meiji period.
He was an apprentice of Masayuki Yoshida, the professor of the department of hammering at Tokyo University of the Arts.

“Obidome” is women’s accessory worn around the Obi.
The wavering Mokume Gane patterns reminds us of the state of water reflection on asari clam.

Since we believe that it is very important to convey Japanese traditional culture to the world, Mokumeganeya will introduce you the Japanese antiques and artworks made with Mokume Gane.
