About Me
About the artist "Kurukku"
A metalsmith artist who grew up
in the countryside, passionate about all living
things
Raised in a nature-rich environment of rivers and rice fields,
she grew up with creatures as her closest companions.
Her university major was mammals and birds,
but her curiosity extends across all vertebrates, insects, plants, and microorganisms.
She lives with her husband and two sons.
She creates her works daily in a home studio.

Care Instructions
Brass deepens in color over time, taking on a beautiful antique quality as it ages.
When you want to restore its shine, simply polish it with a metal polishing cloth.
Brief contact with water is fine, but prolonged exposure can cause discoloration or rust. Please wipe away any water droplets or sweat as soon as possible with a soft cloth.
About Brass
Brass develops a richer color over time and can be restored by polishing.
Contact with water is fine, but leaving it wet for a long time can cause staining — please wipe it dry.
Green patina (verdigris) may develop, but it is harmless to the body and can be removed by polishing.
