日本でデザインされ、織物の産地で生まれた特別な布とキャリーケース

Special fabrics and carry cases designed in Japan and produced in the textile region



Special fabrics designed in Japan and produced in a textile-producing region
All of the fabrics used this time were designed by Japanese textile companies,
They are carefully woven in textile production areas such as Kiryu City.
Each fabric has a unique look and is imbued with Japanese craftsmanship.

① Amate — A unique expression where washi paper and velvet meet

"Amate" features soft velvet pile peeking out in dots.
The design is made by layering Japanese paper, which is made from traditional Japanese materials such as kozo, mitsumata, and gampi.
By gluing the washi paper to the velvet while leaving the fibers intact, we were able to create a texture that feels almost "deep, like leather." The contrast between the smooth surface and the soft texture of the velvet creates an elegant look that is perfect for wrapping jewels.

② Spots — Fabric with a natural rhythm reminiscent of hand-drawn patterns

The reverse side of the velvet is flocked (a technique that uses static electricity to attach short fibers) to create a "two-face" fabric that can be used beautifully on both sides.
This time it's pasted on a box so only one side can be seen, but the scattered dots have an organic feel and exude a warmth, as if each dot was carefully painted with a brush.
The patterns and expressions reminiscent of works of art add depth to the appearance of the jewelry box.

3. Decorative threads — Jacquard with rich expression, where the thread itself becomes the focal point

Using a fluffy decorative thread called mohair thread (chenille thread),
Jacquard fabric woven with threads skipped in some areas, creating a floating weave.
The natural warmth of cotton and wool, combined with the three-dimensional texture of the weave, creates a very attractive material that exudes a high level of skill within its simplicity.
It is slightly thick and soft, and feels comfortable in your hands every time you touch it.

④Inner fabric

This is the fabric used in almost all of MONAKA's displays.
The gray color of both the colored stones and the base metal material makes the colors stand out beautifully, and it is also the brand's image color.

To eliminate stress when you're out and about

For transporting jewelry, I use a type that gently holds the jewelry in place with a sponge , which I also use when transporting or transporting jewelry to events.

It's easy to put in and take out, and your jewelry won't move or get damaged. There's no need to put it in or take it out of a plastic bag. It's designed to be stress-free and safe to use when traveling or on a business trip. When you need to remove it in an emergency, or when you're on a plane and you have swelling and need to remove it, the clip-on type is incredibly convenient. While lock earrings are often too large and you have no choice but to put them in a bag, this type allows you to use them without any issues with the size of the stone.
This also comes in three different types, using the above fabric on the outside.
This jewelry box is a crystallization of Japanese technology, Japanese fabrics, and Japanese aesthetic sense in a way that is unique to MONAKA .
While being a tool to protect your precious jewelry , it is also a work of art that fills the heart with joy just by touching it. We hope that it will beautifully color your daily life and travels.
