A brooch with a modern and charming presence that honors traditional motifs, bringing a refreshing accent to your attire. Each of these hand-embroidered pieces is meticulously crafted by yamanitori, an embroidery artist based in Tottori.
The Tottori Shan-shan Festival vibrantly colors the region’s summer. The sight of brilliant umbrellas dancing to the cool, rhythmic "shan-shan" sound of bells is a cherished seasonal memory for the people of Tottori.
Every color on the umbrella’s paper canopy holds a significant meaning: red and white represent the Tottori Sand Dunes, blue signifies the Sea of Japan, and the silver strips evoke the shimmering scales of fish jumping in the waves.
Named after these lively and lucky sounds—evoking the spirited bubbling of hot springs and the clear ringing of bells—this brooch is a perfect personal talisman or a thoughtful gift for someone special.
