Under the vision of 'Bringing Japanese Culture to the World,' Wagokoro Co., Ltd. (Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, President & CEO: Tomohiro Mori, TSE Growth: 9271), which operates multiple specialty stores across Japan for Japanese accessories like kanzashi (hairpins), umbrellas, and chopsticks, as well as sauna and spa goods, will begin selling the new "Cat-shaped Ceramic Ball Kanzashi" from Friday, March 27th, at its 'Kanzashiya wargo' stores and the e-commerce site "The Ichi".
The much-awaited new colors have joined the "Cat-shaped Ceramic Ball Kanzashi" series, which features an adorable, rounded cat silhouette.
While retaining the gentle texture unique to ceramics, we've added an aurora finish that changes expression with the angle and a metallic coloring. This creates a fantastical and lovely appearance, as if the cats are gently carrying particles of light on their backs.
In addition to the softly glowing aurora-finished "Kosai White" and "Kosai Pink," a range of unique colors are available, including the gorgeously mirror-finished "Gold" and "Silver."
Furthermore, this time, the shaft colors are also offered in a rich variety to match the color of the cat bead. By unifying the tone of each hairpin, the cat's silhouette is further emphasized.
