Lightweight rectangular handmade earrings crafted from traditional Japanese washi paper. The gold Genji-guruma pattern on a black background adds an elegant touch. The design symbolizes eternity and growth.
These handmade earrings are crafted by wrapping traditional Japanese washi paper around a sturdy cardstock base, resulting in a truly unique accessory. The Genji-guruma pattern, hand-printed in gold on a black background, offers a distinctive shine despite being made of paper.
The Genji-guruma is a traditional motif inspired by the wheels of aristocratic ox-drawn carts (gosha) from the Heian period. It symbolizes eternity and development, making it an auspicious and culturally rich design tied to the "Tale of Genji."
Measuring 1×4.1 cm with a thickness of 3 mm, these earrings are lightweight and comfortable to wear, with a total length of 5.5 cm. The French hook design ensures a secure fit, and they are nickel-free for safe use. The washi paper, meticulously hand-printed by artisans in Kyoto, combines craftsmanship and elegance in one accessory.
