Tokyo, full bloom of cherry now

For Japanese people this sakura(cherry blossoms) season brings this special feeling.
The sakura period is short, which is only for a week or so from the time the blossoms fully blooms till they fall.

And since school and office year starts in April here in Japan so many people start their new life along with this season.

Japanese people reflect their thoughts about their events such as a school entrance ceremony and the start of one’s office work, etc. along with their milestones of their life.

And after a week or so, the petals fall like a snowfall innocently.
Fully bloomed sakura is one, but their beauty upon falling is magnificent.

The short life of flower appears to be linked to the sense of beauty deriving from the Japanese notion of “wabi” and “sabi” which admires the moment of the short life is the most beautiful.
I always feel like reflecting such subtle sense of beauty into our jewelries, too.

There are lots of good spot for cherry blossoms near our shop, too.

Toho Studio is known as a famous movie studio from where a countless number of Japanese movies were created. At the river runs nearby, cherry blossoms are lit up in at night. Sakura at night is beautiful like an illusion from March 30^th -April 2^nd.
