Geisha Earrings - Sunflower Yellow
These handwoven earrings are sure to impress!
These lovely earrings are created with a paper cord called 水引 Mizuhiki, an ancient Japanese art form.
Mizuhiki is created from the twines of 和紙 Washi Japanese paper that is tightly wound, starched to give it stiffness, and then colored by thin strands of thread.
Accessories with meaning
Its cultural significance lies in its beautiful hand weaving and tying in knots, and as a symbol of affection, warmth and togetherness, just as the word 結ぶ Musubu (meaning connection or tying) would imply.
Tomi Art is bringing this traditional art form into contemporary wearable art wishing your every day filled with peace and warmth.

I’ve recently bought two face masks and they are amazing and very well made!
I have also bought a beautiful pair of earrings for my girlfriend. Satomi was very available to choose the precise colour I wanted for her. The style and the accuracy in the manufacturing process is perfect as described. Also the metal she uses is antiallergic. I like elegance of her products and it always go beyond my expectations.

Thank you Satomi for my beautifully handcrafted Japanese style earrings. I am in love with my Tomi Art earrings so much that I have 3 pairs in white, gold/black and pink.
