Color variations of the Pine Pattern
The pine pattern preserves green leaves all year round and endures harsh cold, symbolizing "longevity."
We designed this pattern in a modern way, dyeing the good motif with contemporary lifestyle colors.
Colors include a green family with a yellowish tint,
and a warm orange family with two color variations.
While the colors are subdued, each has its own character, making them ideal as a colorful item for your desk.
※ Since the paper is cut by hand, slight individual differences in the placement of the pattern occur. Please understand this.
Fusion of trained design and craftsmanship
This wrapping box case is a special exquisite piece handcrafted one by one by Kyoto wrapping box artisans.
The outside uses hand-dyed Japanese paper, and the inside adopts a different color, creating a vivid impression the moment you open it.
We aimed for a design that is "fun to use."
Design combining storage capacity and functional beauty
The wrapping box case has a size that comfortably fits various stationery such as pens, calculators, and cutters.
Its sturdy construction protects your stationery, allowing you to use it with love for a long time.
Besides stationery, it is also attractive that it can be used for multiple purposes such as accessory cases, cosmetic boxes, and gadget cases.
You can put sweets, miscellaneous goods, and small items inside, using it as a wrapping box for small gifts.
The inside color is accentuated
The beauty when opened is also exquisite, and the inside bottom surface also uses original Japanese paper. The color coordination with the outer pattern has been carefully considered to give a refined impression.
Thanks to fine handiwork, smooth opening and closing is possible. You can feel the comfort every time you use it.
The backside design creates a refined atmosphere
The bottom uses simple, plain paper instead of hand-dyed Japanese paper.
While drawing out the beauty of the pattern, it creates a calm atmosphere, allowing you to enjoy a design with different expressions on the front and back.
The perfect balance with the front side expresses a more refined impression.
The charm of hand-dyed paper stands out in the detail
The hand-dyed Japanese paper used in this wrapping case is an original of Fuwa Market. Kyoto’s skilled artisans handcraft each piece with friendly Japanese paper dyeing techniques.
Using traditional techniques, the deep colors and unique blends are a charm. When you look closely at the pattern, you can feel the subtle layering of colors unique to hand-dyed paper.
Subtle gradations and nuances created by the craftsmanship bring out a unique beauty found nowhere else.
Each edition is carefully dyed by hand, creating a depth and warmth that cannot be expressed by simple printing.
Meticulous craftsmanship brings out the refined beauty of Japanese style. Every time you use it, you can feel the meaning of Japanese craftsmanship and traditional patterns.
We hope you will experience the charm and warmth born from the craftsmanship of artisans.

Pine is a symbol of longevity
The pine is a plant that Japanese people have long loved as a sacred symbol.
Even in the cold winter, its lush green leaves remain, symbolizing "longevity." Also, the pine, plum, and cherry blossom together represent the wish for "longevity for children and grandchildren."
Since the Edo period, it has been regarded as a plant where gods dwell; it has been painted on Noh stage panels, and pine gates have been made to welcome the New Year's god. It has become an indispensable presence from performing arts to celebrations.
The strong vitality and beauty of the pine are still loved by many people today.
