ーーーIntroductionーーー
Omamori is an amulet that is held in Japan when you want to make a wish or ward off bad luck. Omamori are sold at various places, including shrines and temples, and are held by people who entrust their wishes to them. Some people believe that when a charm is broken or lost, it is a sign that a wish will come true or that bad luck will be avoided.
Hiiragi's bracelet is a talisman that always contains one zelkova bead carved by a Buddhist sculptor to pray for the fulfillment of wishes and warding off evil spirits. Please enjoy the amulet that comes close to your wishes.

The lapis lazuli color of this bracelet makes you feel as if you are being sucked in.
Lapis lazuli is a stone that has been used not only as a talisman but also as a pigment essential for vivid blue colors in both Japanese and Western paintings since ancient times. The turban worn on the head by Vermeer's "Girl with a Pearl Earring" was also painted using lapis lazuli. Unlike any other blue, lapis is a blue that is unique to lapis.
Lapis lazuli, whose golden color in the unique blue looks like a star in the night sky, plays the leading role, while rutile quartz and Bombay blackwood are seen as shooting stars and planets.
It is said to help restore energy and guide us in the right direction when we feel lost or tired.
