We visited a gemstone polishing studio in Kofu, Yamanashi Prefecture.<\/p>\n

Since Kofu was a crystal excavation site, gem polishing workshops have flourished in the area since ancient times.<\/p>\n

Even now, a dedicated polishing studio is carefully polishing made-in-Japan loose gemstones, and we have been using them in our original jewelry for a long time.<\/p>\n

At Shimizu Kiseki, which we visited this time, we were able to observe the polishing process of Sakura Incut, a mysterious cutting in which cherry blossoms float in the loose stone.<\/p>\n

Let's start with the room of gemstones.<\/p>\n

Like a museum, gemstones from all over the world are waiting to be polished.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Then we went to the polishing craftsmen's workroom.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We took the time to observe the process, starting from rough sizing to the final cutting of the cherry blossom pattern.<\/p>\n

The angle and strength at which the tool is applied to the grinder can only be done with years of experience, a true craftsmanship.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We felt our backs once again straightened up as we wanted to carefully and firmly tailor such a carefully cut loose piece into jewelry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The cutting of cherry petals is said to lose its shape if the angle or force is changed even for a moment.<\/p>\n

What a delicate cutting!<\/p>\n

It makes me feel even more attached to it.<\/p>\n

Please look forward to our next article on jewelry made from these loose pieces.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
