Iwate's traditional craft "Nambu Iron" is made into Paperweight with a button motif design.
It holds fabrics and paper patterns firmly with a solid weight. The button holes can be used as a pen holder, so we focused on the balance between practicality and visual appearance.
If you have more than one, you can stack them for neat, stacking storage.
Available in a variety of 6 colors to enhance your handmade space. Colors are carefully applied so that you can enjoy the texture and feel of the cast surface.
