New Year’s Greetings : Delivering the Spirit of Craftsmanship to Your Hands


Happy New Year

A single thread. A swatch of fabric. A tool that gives them shape. Whenever we find joy in creating something with our hands, there is always a story behind it—a tale of the artisans who breathed life into the materials and tools we use.


Since our inception, Cohana has shone a light on regional industries and traditional crafts across Japan, offering high-quality handmade tools that blend seamlessly into modern life.
In an age where convenience is often prioritized, we wish to cherish the beauty of things created with time and care, and the dignity of tools designed to last. Passed from the artisan’s hands to yours, these tools are designed to be cherished. By using them with care and lovingly, they become a part of your daily handiwork, growing more precious with time. We hope you enjoy the comfort of a tool that adapts to your hand and becomes a lifelong companion.

With these thoughts in mind, we look forward to continuing to share the beauty of Japanese craftsmanship with you this year. 

We wish you a wonderful and fruitful 2026, and hope to continue this journey of making together with you.

Even during the year-end and New Year holiday period, our online store remains open for orders at all times.
 As you welcome the new year, you may find yourself thinking, “What kind of handmade projects would I like to enjoy in 2026?” or “Perhaps I’ll try something a little new.”
 We hope you will take your time and enjoy browsing our online store with a calm and relaxed mind.

Pre-orders Launch on January 5, 2026

To celebrate the beginning of 2026, we will launch three types of “Lucky Bag 2026” starting at 10:00 am (JST)


The Saku and Mau sets feature a charming selection of items befitting a lucky bag, including a Kyoto chirimen and waxed canvas accessory pouch made with delightfully festive patterns, as well as items showcasing refined Japanese craftsmanship such as a Kumiko needle minder and a Sabae-made acetate loupe & mirror.
Each piece highlights materials, regions, and techniques not previously featured in our collections.

 

In the Musubi set, the Kokeshi pin cushion is inspired by traditional kokeshi dolls, which are believed to embody wishes for vitality, abundant harvests, good health, and protection from misfortune. These dolls are also cherished as symbols of children’s healthy growth.
This pin cushion is available exclusively in a special color created only for this lucky bag.

 

All three lucky bags include Marukago Chidori Jelly, a traditional Japanese confection shaped like auspicious motifs such as plovers. Each jelly is handmade with carefully selected ingredients, offering a nostalgic yet fresh taste—perfect for enjoying during a quiet crafting moment.

Why not begin the year with tools that invite good fortune and happiness, welcoming many blessings into your days of handcrafting?
