The flow is a specialty brand of the tooling (finger ring on the foot), but it has been a 38 -year track record for making jewelry in Minami -Aoyama, Minato -ku.

Fifteen years ago, a customer asked for a custom -made toe ring, and for the first time, he faced the ring of his toes.

As you know, metal tools are painful depending on how they are worn, and they are worn by bending the metal when worn. There are only plain items that can remove stones when bending and stretching in design with stones.

But if you decorate your feet, wouldn't it be nice to be pretty and fascinating your legs? And it began to be designed with a rubber structure that fits with a gorgeous and large motif. However, even with rubber, it is difficult to walk because the design part shakes every time you walk. (-_-;) As a result of a lot of prototypes, we reached the current SP structure. \ (^O^) /

Although it was unlikely, even after applying for a practical model and a patent application, it was possible to launch a brand specializing in the touing, and the flow was born.

By using a transparent rubber for the arm, the brand name is floats! Due to the feeling of liberation of the toes, the design has increased year by year and has exceeded 400 types.

The customer said, "I want to wear it on my finger!" , It was not suitable for fingers.

At first, like the toe ring, the arm part should be transparent and looked for something that was not dirty with transparent materials, and looked at the optical fiber material. It is the floating ring (-_-;) Floating Ring (-_-;) is that you know that it can be processed in a coil immediately.

However, this optical fiber was often brought in and actually brought in repair, so it was necessary to find the next material.

 

The coil -shaped form of this optical ferber was suitable for size -free, so this time it didn't have to be transparent, so I found a metal that could be remembered in a coil -shaped shape, and reached the titanium alloy ..... .. The titanium alloy is a black metal and is not suitable for the gorgeous jewelry that the flow is aiming for. I tried various things such as titanium alloys, such as 18 gold coating, but failed a lot. (´ ; ω ; `) ゥ

When I was about to give up, I met a factor. According to the person, if the black film on the titanium surface is peeled off, it may be possible to fix it. I waited for the process of the prototype. One step forward! ! !

However, at the beginning, it was not very beautiful because the color was close to copper and there was no glossy. So I changed to 24 gold and great success! \ (^O^) /

A jewelry that combines durability and beauty has been born.

* Those who have a floating ring

From November 2023, we will change to titanium alloy for free! ! Sorry to trouble you, but please bring it to Omotesando Harajuku Honten!
