Luxury fabric jewellery using KOFU.
What is KOFU?
Kofu, in Japanese, means used fabrics that can be repurposed. All fabrics are carefully selected, by founder Miruka from vintage markets and second hand kimono stores in Japan. Some of the Kofu is over 100 years old and still retain their colour and vibrancy.
Materials are usually silk, cotton or linen.
mirooka’s aim is to make luxury fabric jewellery for people who loves Kimono, vintage and textiles.
Every Necklace has a different fabric combination, since each Kofu is vintage and limited thus,
They are ONE OF A KIND.
