Ironna Happa

Coveting these embroidered pins sold under the Japanese brand name, Ironna Happa.  We don’t know the name of the maker but we do know that she graduated from the Japan Handicrafts Association Embroidery Teacher course and has been exhibiting since 2006. She produces each item with hemp cloth and embroidery thread. You can follow this artisan on Facebook and see more of her work on Instagram.

Tsubupochi

Found these charming beaded accessories on Japanese handmade market site, Creema. There‘s very little information on the creator but these small sushi accessories are sold under the brand name, Tsubupochi. This is their sushi series but in the future we hope to see them work with other themes.

You can follow them on Twitter and their shop can be found on Creema and Base.ec.

Makumo

We love the fabrics and product extensions of this Japanese textile brand, Makumo. The tiny garage brand is the brainstorm of Japanese designer, illustrator and screen printer Miki Fukuyama. Her four member company designs, prints and makes all their products in Fukuoka, Japan. Some of their products are available here in their English online store. Their shoe collection is available here at Onitsuka Tiger.

You can follow this group on their website, Facebook and Instagram.
