Development Background

Stingray leather (ray leather) is rarely sold in the market because there are no craftsmen in Japan who can handle it due to the difficulty of processing. We developed this product to let people know about the beautiful and durable stingray leather, and to take on the challenge of making it even though it is difficult to process.

Features

Gusset structure

The gusset folds outward like an accordion, which is one of the traditional Japanese techniques.

It is a beautiful technique that allows you to put in and out business cards and bills without damaging them, being thin and sharply designed to your specifications.

However, since it requires elaborate techniques for complex manufacturing, cutting, leather making, and assembly, it takes a considerable amount of time and effort to produce, and it is said that only a few craftsmen are capable of making them these days.

Characteristics of Stingray Leather

Stingray leather is a leather that shines as if it is covered with jewels, and has been called the "jewel of the sea" and the "swimming jewel" because of its beautiful shine.

It is so durable that it is said to last for 100 years, and is so tough that it is not easily scratched even by knives.
