While silk is often associated with a glossy and smooth texture, this cord takes a different approach by pursuing an antique finish.

The silk cords are manufactured in Fukui Prefecture, renowned for its long history of cord production. They are then skillfully braided and finished one by one at a specialized wax-pulling factory. This factory, unique in Japan, processes each cord by hand, achieving a finish that machine production struggle to replicate. The cord softens with use, enhancing its comfort over time.
