Breathing New Life Through Design
In Japan, I manufactured and repaired bags and accessories
for some of the world’s most renowned brands.
Now, with that experience and my precise craftsmanship,
I’ve established a new venture here in Georgia, Eastern Europe.
To deliver top performance to fashion-conscious people around the world,
I focus not only on carefully selected materials,
but also on original design and user-friendly functionality.
I place great value on breathing new life into items
that might otherwise be discarded over time.
Please enjoy my work — a personal challenge toward a more recycling-oriented society.

The meaning of “SHUHARI”
“SHUHARI” is a term rooted in traditional Japanese culture,
used in disciplines such as kendo and the tea ceremony
to describe the stages of mastery in practice.
“SHU” refers to the stage of faithfully following the teachings, kata (forms), and techniques of a master or school in order to fully internalize them.
“HA” is the stage where one explores other teachings and schools, adopting new perspectives and refining one’s own skills and understanding.
“RI” represents the stage of transcendence — leaving behind the original school to establish a new, personal style.
This philosophy is the foundation of our craftsmanship.
It is our hope and dream that this word, born in Japan,
will cross oceans and resonate with people around the world.
We promise that our creations will bring joy and inspiration to your life.
What is “Nippon” ?
“Nippon” means “Japan” in Japanese.
In Japanese, we say “Japan” as either “Nippon” or “Nihon.”
Originally, the country was called “Nippon,” but over time, the term “Nihon” also emerged.
Nowadays, both words are commonly used interchangeably.
