European and American high jewelry is said to be characterized by its dynamic design and craftsmanship. On the other hand, Japanese jewelry has a design that embodies a ``delicate'' sensibility and a refined technique of ``precision.'' The brilliance of Japanese high jewelry, which is considered both art and craft, creates jewelry that seems to penetrate the soul. Premium Japan will introduce carefully selected brands.
What you can't get by investing money is history. Nowadays, it is difficult for a company to survive for 10 or 20 years, so the fact that it has been inherited for over 200 years can be considered a miracle. The founder of ``Shikankou'' was a Kabuki actor named Utaemon Nakamura III, who opened his business in 1813 in Shinsaibashi, Osaka, across from the Daimaru Kimono Store, and began selling ``Shikankou,'' a bottled oil. In 1870, the store was taken over by the first generation, Kinsuke Kinoshita, and has been run by the Kinoshita family ever since.
``Shikanka'' has been dealing in items demanded by the times, such as cosmetic items such as eyebrow sweepers and whitening powder, hair ornaments such as hairpins and combs, and haberdashery made of tortoiseshell and coral. Today, the company's main products, such as jewelry and leather products, have expanded in response to customer requests. The products are of the highest quality, carefully selected in anticipation of the tastes of customers with a discerning eye and an advanced sense of fashion.

The jewelry introduced here is "Or heure", an original brand that means "golden hour" in French. Each piece contains Shibakanka's wish, ``I want you to feel the time shining like gold forever with this jewelry.'' It goes without saying that the quality of the jewelry is high, but the variety of designs captures the hearts of women who love jewelry. There seems to be a large selection of items that are generally not available in jewelry stores, such as fancy cut diamonds, fancy colored diamonds, and rare colored stones, which are generally not available in large quantities. If you are a jewelry fan, this is a jewelry store that you should know about.
