Ring making - The ring making experience was amazing! They allowed you to see each step of the process and even do it yourself! We each designed a ring and then helped shape and create it for the other! They were so welcoming and we really enjoyed the whole experience and process.

A pleasant and comfortable experience - The price varies depending on the selected material, finger size, and style. Kaeminami-san's explanations and guidance are very kind and lively, and I enjoyed the whole process. The ring is also beautiful ♥️

A ring for gratitude - In this experiential workshop, I was always accompanied by Nonoka and her colleagues. I created a personalized ring by participating in the hammering of the surface. I also recommend the experience to couples who want a wedding ring that is different from the usual. Thank you
