Held in an antique building in Asakusa during the three-day weekend before Christmas
The "CRAFTS JEWELRY" exhibition, featuring 30 handmade jewelry artists, is being held in the Asakusa-Kuramae area, where new establishments such as interior shops gathering designer goods from Japan and abroad, and cafes renovated from old buildings, have been opening one after another in recent years.
This exhibition focuses on personal adornments that combine the handcrafted nature and unique style born from human hands, termed "crafts jewelry." It aims to deepen understanding of the creators' work and expand opportunities to encounter them.
The exhibition and sale will feature a diverse array of works from 30 handmade jewelry artists, including "kenichi kondo," who creates cloisonné jewelry by firing vitreous glaze onto metal; "bebelulu," popular for its jewelry incorporating colorful wildflowers sealed in resin one by one; and "riro," whose jewelry expresses cleanliness and warmth using gold and silver.
Additionally, a drink stand produced by "ecocolo" and a select shop of antique goods will also be present.
