Mokume Gane is a Japanese metalworking technique yielding a wood-grain effect by layering different metals. Used for jewelry and sword fittings, its patterns—once exclusive to samurai—are now appreciated worldwide.
The process requires precision, artistry, and patience, resulting in pieces that symbolize strength and aesthetic harmony. Mokume Gane reflects Japan’s appreciation for beauty in intricate details.
Modern artisans uphold this tradition, blending innovation and respect for heritage in every piece.
