The Story of the Motif: Temari — The Sphere of Happiness

This motif features the Temari, a traditional Japanese thread ball, elegantly embroidered onto a pure silk obi. Far more than just an ancient toy, the Temari is a symbol of heartfelt wishes: its intricately interlaced threads represent the bonds of the heart and a life of harmony and longevity.

Against a black background of absolute depth, the golden spheres seem to float like celestial stars. It was this rare, elegant contrast that immediately captivated me. I chose this piece for its unique blend of graphic modernism and poetic grace—a precious talisman to keep close to you.
