Are You Ready for This Wonderful Christmas and New Year? 🎄

This special season, we're delighted to introduce two collections:
- 2024 Christmas Collection featuring 3 exclusive patterns
- Studio Ghibli Collection with 7 new designs

Okay, you've admired the product photos..
Now let us spill some behind-the-scenes secrets!😎

Did you know each new project requires over six months of preparation?

Our artisans go through multiple proposals until we find the perfect color combination.

After many tests and adjustments, we've finalized these festive patterns.

Did you find Santa Claus hidden in the design? 🎅

Next! Let's talk about the Story of Studio Ghibli Collection.

Finally, after 7 years, we're launching new Ghibli designs!

For the embossing process, Totoro's designs are crafted using three distinct copper plates. Each plate brings out unique details, beautifully highlighting both the big and small Totoros in their own charming ways.

For Kaonashi (No-Face), we used an elongated copper plate.

💡Here's an interesting detail: see the two different colors on the plate?

New copper plates start bright all over, like the edges you see.
After hundreds of cycles of heating➡️pressing➡️cooling, only the used areas turn dark - it's like a craftsman's signature!

All right, that’s today’s OOZEKI story.
