古代箔 手鏡 Ancient Gold Leaf Hand Mirror

Over 99% of Japan’s gold leaf is produced in Kanazawa, where the craft has been passed down for more than 400 years since the time of the Kaga Domain.

This series uses “ancient foil” (Kodaihaku), with its unique gradient created through special techniques.

Each piece has a different shimmer and has remained popular since the brand’s founding.

The ancient foil naturally displays multiple colors, giving it strong presence without elaborate designs.

Its simple brilliance creates a modern impression while still conveying deep tradition.

The gold is beaten to an astonishing thickness of just 1/10,000th of a millimeter—a material born only from exceptional skill and local climate.That accumulated time and effort gives this hand mirror its refined depth and presence.
