  • Shirakaba Ring - Art Finish -

    Among hundreds of birch bark pieces found in the forest,
    I selected only one that truly felt special and beautiful.

    Although the surface is carefully layered with resin many times,
    the natural softness of birch and its raw, untamed character
    are intentionally left intact.

    Each birch ring is finished by hand,
    with time and care devoted to every single piece.

    The price is 8,000 yen.
    Please take your time and find the ring that feels right for you.

  • Shirakaba Ring - Natural Finish -

    Preserving the natural character of birch bark,
    this ring is finished with only minimal processing,
    allowing its organic expression to remain intact.

    The shape may be slightly irregular,
    and the surface may feel a bit rough.
    These are not flaws, but the natural qualities of birch as a living material.

    This ring is meant to carry a wish, much like a misanga.
    When the ring comes apart, a wish may be fulfilled,
    or at times it may complete its role by protecting its wearer in your place.

    All things with form eventually come to an end.
    That is why the time you spend wearing this ring
    is what gives it true value.

    Born in the forests of Niseko,
    this ring finds its purpose in your everyday life.
    Please cherish the time you share with it.

  • For the Children of this Region

    We donate a portion of our revenue to pass the richness of the forest—the birthplace of this ring—on to the next generation.

    The fact that their hometown is loved by travelers like you gives the local children great pride and confidence.

    The gifts of the forest circle back to support their dreams. Thank you for being a part of this cycle.

2. Usage Cautions

This concise warning is the key to conveying sincerity.

【Allergy Warning】

This product uses natural white birch bark. If you have a birch allergy, please refrain from use.

If you experience any skin abnormalities (itching, rash, inflammation, etc.) during use, please discontinue use immediately and consult a specialist.

【Product Characteristics and Durability】

Since this product uses natural wood-derived materials, there will be individual differences in color and pattern.

To preserve the natural state of the bark, please avoid strong impact or excessive water exposure.

【Product Characteristics and Material Flexibility】

Birch bark is composed of dozens of extremely thin, overlapping layers. This natural structure provides the ring with a unique lightness and soft flexibility that metal does not have.

Internal layers may occasionally separate or peel under strong bending or excessive pressure away from the adhesive surface. This does not affect the ring's strength. This separation is a characteristic of this living, natural bark and is a testament to the ring's flexibility.

Please enjoy this texture as a unique character of the product. This "peeling" is proof of the flexibility that must not be lost.。
