I taught ballet in Japan for many years. From an early age, I loved making things, influenced by my mother. My mother was an artisan who embroidered traditional Japanese wedding attire. She was also very skillful and stylish. She made accessories as a hobby, and I used to make accessories with her.

Just like when I hear ballet music I can imagine the choreography, when I see a castle I can imagine earring. The brand logo is based on the three-leaf hollyhock, the family crest of the Tokugawa clan.

My family are descendants of the prestigious Tokugawa clan in Japan. The family crest embroidered by my mother was displayed in the living room of my parents' home.

I hope to be able to express my image through piercings in the same way as I do with ballet.
