SEE OH! Ribbon - Japanese Multi-Purpose Shiribon / 7 Colors Across 3 Designs

・Crafted in Awara City, Fukui, Japan, a region famous for its ribbon production. ・Ribbons, usually a supporting element, take center stage in this product. ・Rich variety in colors, designs, and uses. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52098611865_6db282a456_b.jpg **-Ribbons as the Star-** Ribbons are typically used as packaging materials. We created these bookmarks, named "Shiribon" (a play on "bookmark" and "ribbon"), with the desire for ribbons to be cherished as long-lasting products rather than disposable materials. Utilizing laser processing techniques, usually employed for cutting ribbons, we've expressed intricate and three-dimensional designs by subtly etching the surface. This results in visually appealing bookmarks that highlight the soft texture of the ribbon. The packaging is designed to reveal that it's made from a single ribbon, with three bookmarks nestled inside. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52104437251_771ecf45d5_c.jpg **-Endless Possibilities: Decorate with Diverse Ribbons-** While traditional bookmarks simply mark a place in a book or planner, these "Shiribon" bookmarks add a decorative element, enhancing the book, the person carrying it, and even the bookshelf where finished reads are stored. Simply tuck the rectangular part into your book and drape the beautiful motif over the spine. Feel free to add your personal touch by attaching beads or customizing them further. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52098140433_ef2eea0c8a_b.jpg **-CEMENT x Yachiyo Textile Industry-** Awara City in Fukui Prefecture accounts for approximately 90% of Japan's ribbon production. The low recognition of Fukui as a ribbon production area stems from ribbons primarily being used as packaging materials. Price competition has intensified due to the influx of inexpensive overseas products. To explore new possibilities for ribbons, we collaborated with CEMENT on product development. "SEE OH! Ribbon," the first product designed to elevate ribbons from mere supporting players to the stars they deserve to be, was born from the idea of giving a second life to ribbons that would otherwise be discarded after serving their initial purpose. 【Product Information】 Size: Width 143mm × Height 300mm Package Size: Width 150mm × Height 310mm Weight: 20g Material: Polyester ・Each sheet contains a set of 3 different bookmarks. ・As they are made of ribbon, please be careful as they may tear if pulled with excessive force.
