The entire design is like a flower, and the openwork around it is delicate and beautiful. It has a massive feel.
It is simple and elegant rather than cute.
Each piece is handmade, so there are subtle differences in color and shape. There is a small hole for fixing.
Some parts are distorted or have gaps.

This item is a Japanese door handle called FUSUMA. FUSUMA is a frame made of wood or the like with paper or cloth on both sides and a handle attached to it. It is one of the fittings used to partition the Japanese-style room.

There is a word SHITURAU in Japanese language.
This meaning is a combination of the two meanings of SHI (Doing) and TURAU (matching).
In Japan, the culture of SHITURAU space has permeated people since the Heian period.
For example, the samurai attached a crest-shaped handle to his house.
Besides that, there was a culture that sometimes expressed the season, dignity, message, etc. with buildings such as FUSUMA. This item is also a product of that culture.
