Our unique and cozy factory

Hi there! It's Rumi from Tokyo.
Hope you enjoy the lovely season :)

Since our parent company's headquarters and factory is in Osaka, I sometimes visit there.
It's always fun to go there to see some machines, and also I look forward to seeing our colleagues.
(Many thanks, Maki for your support!)


There are more than 50 special machines for our original cards and envelopes.



Although we have only 8 staff members in our Tokyo office, more than 120 people are working at the Osaka office/factory. So the enviromnet is so different from my office!


One of my favorite places in the factory is staff cafeteria. (food is yummy!) Also, I love the big painting there. Can you see?



In the painting, it says "connect the world!" And there are some international people at one big table, and having lunch together. It always makes me smile :)
Sometimes I have a coffee there looking at the picture. It is the most relaxing time.

(making scene of the painting) pretty big, right?


I will show you more about our factory next time.

Happy Halloween!!

Adorable personalized seals♥

Have you checked our adorable personalized seals? They are limited items since they are introduced at our "personalized stationery of the month, July." Ending soon!

You can choose monogram or creature designs.
I personally love creature seals :) So lovely!



I am going to order ocean designs, which are fish, turtle and seahorse, and will print my name on them. Also, you can choose one color, turquoise or dark purple. (Hmm...both colors are so cute. I can't decide..!)

I'd love to use them for letters and gift wrapping!


We will soon update the new bespoke stationery of the month, so please don't forget to check it out in August. You can check the items here.

Have a nice weekend!

Winged Wheel x Wallpaper* magazine!

Hi there, we would LOVE to share our exciting news with you!

We collaborate with the famous design magazine in the UK, "Wallpaper*"! Yay!
The wonderful project was to produce luxe invitations for their reception event at Milano Salone. Milano Salone is a famous design exhibition in Milan, Italy.

Ta-dah!



The theme of Wallpaper at the exhibition was "hand made", so for their invitation, we have selected 100% cotton paper which are made by a Japanese washi craftsman.
We also made fabulous envelope! The edge color of the envelope is painted by hand by our expert staff members.


After we shipped the paper and envelopes, the team of Wallpaper* could make the incredible invitations!! We love their design! (Especially, I love their embossing logo. Woo, so cool!)

The beautiful letterpress printing by Mr Smith's Letterpress Workshop, London

The reception was held on April 15 at the Brioni Palazzo, Milan.
Luckly, my Italian friends, Chiara and Lucio joined the event, so I will introduce some photos at the event next time!

Enjoy your lovely week :)
