Ryuka Kikuchi learned from his father, a brass craftsman, and now runs the workshop "Lue" in Setouchi City, Okayama Prefecture. The products born from his hands and hospitality have a nostalgic, folk-art feel, yet fit seamlessly into modern life. This is evident from their distribution in over 10 countries, including the US and Europe, not just domestically.


This time, a new "money clip" has been released. A notable feature is that only one side of the clip is shaped like a mountain peak, making it easier to insert bills. He shaped it using a hammer. The money clip fits comfortably in the hand, and its moderate weight keeps it stable in a pocket. The reasonable price is also appealing.
