I called you a few days ago.
A customer who inquired about
A couple came to the store.
They are considering zelkova, kurokaki, etc.
Called us a few days ago
Mr. T called with an inquiry about two days before his visit.
Questions about zelkova wood, kurokaki wood, etc.
You are considering a watch case with a good selection of materials.
There is no wood in the size and fit you want,
First of all, please register for "Rare Materials Communication" and
We will be happy to provide you with the information in the material of your choice.
We will have to ask you to wait.
But the day after that, he called me.
We will ask you to visit us once.
They are from Gunma, Japan.
Thank you very much.
Zelkova is passable.
We have received your inquiry.
It is zelkova wood,
The natural zelkova wood in stock is
Too expensive, so I will pass this time.
Until about 10 years ago.
I have been showing you this zelkova wood,
Only for natural products.
We're all messed up too.
There are fewer opportunities to encounter them.
Even when encountered, "tamamoku" is not a good choice.
It is an astonishing amount of money.
However, the "tamamoku".
Currently we have a watch case in a size for 10 watches.
Only one case has been able to go into production!
We will let you know again when it is successfully completed.
Japanese persimmon (Diospyros kurokaki)
Mr. T. who came to the store.
Passed zelkova wood
We are considering using black persimmon with clear moku (wood grain).
I'll be blogging about it often.
I would like to introduce you to the Kurokaki wood,
Peacock wood
It can be quite expensive.
like a panda
The black-and-white lumber is clear.
Compared to peacock wood, etc.
It can be produced at a very reasonable cost.
Mr. T. who came to the store is
We are considering this panda-like material.
The various materials are immediately placed on the table for comparison.
Here are some of them.
The same kurokaki wood
The grain of the wood differs greatly.
The thickness and length of the product will vary.
It is quite difficult to imagine the finished case from here.
Mr. T chose this material.
Omote ⬇︎
Back: ⬇︎
A four-bottle size case will be made from this material.
The width is finished at around 260 mm, the maximum size, using as much lumber as possible.
However, due to the thickness of the material, the entire surface cannot be made of the same material.
Is the top, front side, and even the back side of the board just barely co-wooded?
Or, only the top and front side panels are coated with
Otherwise, it will be finished with another material.
Mr. T agreed to this point,
The selection of the wood is finished.
Leather selection
Next, the interior leather,
Mr. T's wishes are
Beige type.
Currently in "beige type".
We usually offer
Only "pig" leather is available.
However, the combination of "Kurokaki + PIG leather
The balance between the texture of the wood and the leather is not quite right.
Mr. T also touched the PIG leather with his hands.
The atmosphere is a bit seedy.
Interior.
I just want to get a nice textured finish!"
The company wishes to do so.
therefore
The special order that was left just in time.
We present "French pastured lamb, beige".
The very same,
French free-range special grade lamb leather, highly regarded as the best leather in the world,
BODIN-JOYEUX" leather.
Beautiful form!
The texture is like a baby's skin!
It is amazingly high grade.
If you touch this.
Other leathers are at a level of comparison.
However, the price is also high grade in proportion to the quality.
It's a bit of a quandary.
This time, this "French Pastured Lamb Beige" was chosen.
With what we currently have in stock at Soulbird.
If it is not enough, you can pay for the shipping costs from France.
Thank you for your understanding.
Thank you very much.
Now to Haneda.
I had a large backpack with me when I came to the store.
I was curious to hear about this.
Now, "I'm going overseas from Haneda."
This is the first time that the company has been involved in this project.
They will be leaving for Haneda in a hurry.
Please have a safe trip.
We too are very much looking forward to the finished product in kurokaki wood and French lamb beige.
We will finish and deliver the product in a great case.
Thank you for your time before your trip.
