Showen Kumihimo Silk Strap
Jusan-uchi 13 braids
Thirteen braided cords threaded into one, creating a marvelous silk strap
Meaning “thirteen braids” in Japanese, the Jusan-uchi strap incorporates thirteen braided cords into a new strap design. The woven silk cords create a three-dimensional texture, while retaining the beautiful color of the silk. The result is a one of quality and elegance, bringing a deep sense of emotion to the monochrome patterns.

The 13-braid strap
The strap’s elasticity allows it to easily adapt to your wrist without the need for holes. This practicality, combined with the beautiful three-dimensional texture created by the braiding technique, makes the Jusan-uchi strap unlike any other.
