"Towering Talisman" Size: 2.47" x 1.97" Price: SOLD


This is another of those pendants for which words have not been created yet which are adequate to describe it. It's a combination of the work of two Japanese artists who are at the absolute top of their game. The cab that Junichi made is exquisitely beautiful, with such a wonderful flowing pattern, like precious glass water. It is slightly smaller than most full size cabs, but still big enough that I'd hate to call it 'medium' sized. Then the leather work that Kinoko Heads (Kousuke Oyama) did around the cab is to die for! After chatting with Kousuke in Japan about his process, I'm even more stunned every time I look at a piece like this, knowing just how much painstakingly detailed effort and hours goes into its creation. Look at all of those tiny pieces of died leather laid out in that amazing pattern. WOW!!! It all complements Jun's mind boggling cab SOOOO nicely. Easily one of the greatest pendants that has ever been created. Kinoko signed it on the backside with both of their names, so killer! LOVE this pendant, created specially for the Team Japan show.
