I made a "temari" (traditional Japanese handball) with gorgeous, blooming woven flowers.
Golden petals dance from the temari.
It will glamorously adorn special occasions such as your child's Shichi-Go-San celebration or a Coming of Age Ceremony.
This kanzashi (hairpin), unique to the "saki-ami" (blooming weave) technique, is an accessory that doesn't lose to a kimono, yet brightens your face without being overly assertive.
Even if you simply insert it into a everyday ponytail, it will create a harmonious Japanese modern aesthetic without feeling out of place.

Commitment to Materials
The fluffy saki-ami is made from organza.
Organza is a thin, light, stiff, hand-woven plain-weave fabric with a crisp texture.
Because it is translucent, it creates a unique soft atmosphere with elegant sheerness, and is characterized by its distinctive luster and elasticity.
After tearing various fabrics, chiko uses polyester organza, which has strong durability and stable quality.
Features of Saki-ami Products
◎ "Just right" for you, for your everyday outings
The light-transmitting organza blends in perfectly with your daily attire and the places you go. The interplay of colors with light shows various expressions. You can share it with your family and friends, and each of you can enjoy its different expressions!
◎ Delicately beautiful, yet very durable
Organza will not discolor over time. Because it is tightly woven, it won't lose its shape or unravel even if it's jostled on the train or kept in a pouch! Even if it gets wet on a bad weather day, its fluffiness remains intact. Please feel free to go out with peace of mind!
Precautions for Handling Saki-ami Products
Since the product is made by tearing fabric, there may be some fuzziness. While some fluff may fall off initially, the fibers will settle and become less prone to shedding with use, so please enjoy its texture as it ages. If it gets dirty, please hand wash it gently. If you let it air dry, the volume will return to normal!
