This is a set of Cohana's bestseller Shozaburo Thread Snips with Iga Silk Braid and a new Cohana's original Odamaki Charm specially made by an artisan of Iga Kumihimo using the same Iga silk braid.
Kumihimo: Silk Braids is a traditional Japanese handicraft that combines functional beauty and artistry, and has been a part of Japanese life and culture in various forms such as kimono, armors, horse tack, and equipment for tea ceremonies etc. throughout the long history of Japan.
Traditional Japanese Kumihimo, made by braiding fine silk threads, is considered a lucky charm with the meaning of knotting connections together.
In that sense, Kumihimo silk braid can symbolize the united destiny between you and your mother. Why not give a pair of Shozaburo Thread Snips with Iga Silk Braid and an Odamaki Charm to celebrate the special relationship with your mother?
Delivered in Cohana's original Mother's Day gift wrapping, which can be used as a gift as it is.
With Cohana's original Mother's Day message card
Shozaburo Thread Snips with Iga Silk Braid are crafted in Tokyo with the utmost care, one pair at a time, by artisans with a commitment to excellence. The handles of Shozaburo snips are wrapped with Iga silk braids. Aesthetically pleasing and gentle on the hands, making for a delightful sewing experience.
Odamaki is a way of winding a Kumihimo (silk braid). Since the beginning and end of the winding are hidden, it symbolizes “things repeating themselves” or “unbroken connections”, and is considered auspicious. The shiny gold thread is used as an accent.
The charm is recommended to attach as a decoration for your favorite tool.
