“Brass”
A metal cherished by both Eastern and Western cultures since ancient times.
Used in everything from interior decor and equestrian gear to door handles, brass is known for its soft sheen and warm tone.
It’s a uniquely captivating material that develops a distinctive patina over time, enhancing its charm with age.
“Casting”
A process in which molten metal, heated to high temperatures, is poured into a mold to form a shape.
There are various types of molds—such as metal, plaster, and sand molds.
At Kamishiraishi, skilled artisans craft all brass castings using traditional sand molds.
Unlike automated methods with fixed molds, they shape each piece by hand, one at a time, with care and precision.
While this method can increase costs, the warmth and gentle character of handmade products far outweigh the tradeoff.
