About the exhibitor
ALIMANO is a jewellery brand inspired by the beautiful nature of Arimano,a mountain village located in the middle of Mie Prefecture, Japan. It is the designer’s home town and the sources for all her creations can be found in this place.
Spectacular and powerful, sometimes severe, but also gentle and elegant; Arimano’s nature changes according to the season while teaching the universal beauty that never changes. The law of beauty hidden in such nature has been incorporated into the design in an urban geometric shape. These refined and glossy jewellery pieces have a grand but peaceful presence.
About the products
DEER HORN JEWELRY
Since ancient times, people in Japan have felt and worshipped gods in every part of nature, including deer. In the modern times of the 21st century, deer are carefully protected as the messengers of a god; wild deer are hunted in honour as the grace of the mountain. Focusing on their horns, which have rarely been used up to now, the designer found a strong and delicate beauty not seen in other materials, and considered breathing new life into them. This is the story behind DEER HORN JEWELRY. While carefully checking each piece of material, cuts and colours are added to the design. The unique texture has a presence like no other.
