"Hundred Rivers" Size: 1.65" Price: SOLD


Not only is this an amazingly cool looking collaboration pendant between Junichi and Kinoko Heads (Kousuke Oyama), but it is VERY special in another way. The very first collab pendant created by these two featured this same scene created by Jun, except in imploded form, and wrapped by Kousuke in a much more basic, but still very sweet design. They made two of those, and Kousuke and Jun still rock those pendants #1 and 2 on the regular. Flash forward and they created #100 for the All Japan Show in July, 2015, and it featured an amazing dotted design of the same scene, and then Kousuke's astounding stacked leather wrap which features a skull and trees scene of its own!! This pendant here and one other I have from that show are smaller milli versions of that exact design, and all 3 of the pendants have '100' on the back, created out of tiny leather pieces. The whole design is truly mind boggling work, among the coolest pendants I've ever seen in my life. I can't get over how Kousuke created those trees and skull out of the leather!! It is an incredible process that took days to complete, with a LOT more work going into the leather than the glass, which is really amazing, since that milli is awesome just by itself! Kousuke told me about his process, which included a couple of weeks of just planning for the designs for this show. His work is truly legendary, literally ONE OF A KIND IN THE WORLD. This is your chance to own a truly amazing piece of pendant history right here!! Signed 'RK' for Rose Roads and Kinoko Heads.
