Two comets journeying through the dark universe, side by side.
"Twin Comets" is a design born from imagining such a scene.
It began as a shape resembling a sea creature, which came to mind while looking through an encyclopedia of sea urchins and starfish.
However, as the shape was formed and observed, it transcended the sea and eventually soared into space.
Originally conceived as a small pair of mini-tongs, "Twin Comets" transformed into a bangle and then a ring.
The two metallic flows intertwine as if embracing the finger, appearing like two celestial bodies moving along their respective orbits.
From tool to adornment.
From a shape for use to a shape for wearing.
These are the tiny Twin Comets that reside on your fingertips.
Artist
Hiro Kashihara
I create small supporting characters who quietly uphold the beauty and deliciousness of the table.
My journey into cutlery making began when my wife, who loves cooking, collected beautiful tableware and cutlery. Wanting to create moments that would make her happy and to offer her beautiful tea times, I began making cutlery myself.
Since 2020, I have been working as a cutlery artist, developing a style based on the concept of “Spoon You Nurture,” using materials such as brass and nickel silver that enhance the enjoyment of aging over time.
Today, I see cutlery as a canvas, creating new works by distilling scenes and moments I find beautiful into simple forms.
The artist handcrafts each piece.
Texture, color, shape, and size may differ between the photograph and the piece you receive, but we hope you enjoy each piece's unique character.

| Notes |
We use materials that age easily, such as brass, nickel silver, and silver. We apply a surface protectant to polished pieces. Pieces with an antique finish are left in their natural state so you can enjoy the material's texture.
If tarnishing or rust is a concern, please gently polish with a jewelry polishing cloth.
If moisture adheres, please wipe thoroughly before storing.
Each piece is handmade, so length and shape may vary. Please note that for design purposes, small scratches may be present, as they are intentionally finished to have an aged, antique texture.
There is a risk of metal allergies. If you experience any abnormalities, please discontinue use and consult a doctor.
