Chromatophore harmonizes the spontaneous beauty of natural gemstones with precise craftsmanship. Crafted in 18K yellow gold, it features 392 pave set stones, including rare Alexandrite and Bekily Blue Garnet, some as small as 1.0 mm.

The Flora Octopus Brooch fuses contemporary jewelry with embroidered sculpture, presenting a lightweight yet voluminous form inspired by imagined marine life. Instead of conventional metals or stones, it employs recycled threads and organza to create texture, fluidity, and organic movement. The three-dimensional embroidery construction reflects sustainability and innovation, while the vivid interplay of colors transforms thread into a sculptural medium. This brooch serves as both ornament and statement, highlighting artistry and ecological awareness in contemporary jewelry.
Cheers is a brooch shaped as a large wine glass that also contains smaller glasses of various shapes. The smaller glasses represent moments of celebration. Japanese akoya pearls represent the bubbles rising in the wine, and the pearls can swing freely. The brooch is made of 18K gold set with natural diamonds and akoya pearls. The back is also formed as a wine glass with flowing bubbles. Movable joints were carefully placed so that the brooch feels light and comfortable when worn. The design recalls happy moments shared with friends.

As the designer wishes, this piece of jewelry will provide a touch of coolness from nature to people who live in crowded and busy cities, which allows them to relax for a moment. Nature, mountains and rivers were the inspirations, forming them with regular geometric shapes, leading to complexity to simplicity. Made of 18k white gold, set with 11.76ct spinels and 1.415ct diamonds. The spinel in each piece is unique, just like the trees in the mountains are all different.
The Ray is a brooch inspired by a ray of sunlight appearing through the clouds on a cloudy day. The base color of the brooch is dark, as the piece uses black rhodium plated metal and a black diamond. Bright gemstones are combined with the dark base to brighten the whole piece. The pearls give a soft glow, while the diamonds add sparkle next to the dark metal. The brooch was developed as a three-dimensional digital model. The Ray measures 50 by 30 by 17 millimeters.
This hand-crafted wearable art piece can be worn as an accessory or even displayed at home. Using a novel double-sided 3D embroidery technique, the same pattern was simultaneously stitched on both sides of the piece. Its thin, powdery, and shiny wings could be reproduced with single strands and wires, resulting in a lifelike 3D butterfly with form-changeable wings. The wings were attached firmly to pedestals so they will not easily come off. The genuine gold and platinum threads used are so hard that until now, they have never been used in Japan’s embroidery industry.
Dome is a set of three brooches inspired by the domes of churches. The three pieces show the same dome in the morning, at noon and at night. Each brooch is made by hand from S925 silver and red copper through a metal folding process that includes smelting, forging, buckling, folding, welding and polishing. Surface textures and a metal oxidant create the different colors. Hollow out areas allow the color and weave of the garment to be seen. Double needles on the back keep each brooch stable when worn.
