For Trade & Hospitality

Gold-Thread Art at the Scale of Architecture

We partner with hotels, interior designers, architects and developers to place one-of-a-kind Japanese gold-thread artworks in the world's most considered spaces.

One of a Kind

Every work is unique — no two are ever alike.

Genuine Gold Leaf

Real gold, applied to washi and woven by hand.

Certificate of Authenticity

Each piece is accompanied by documented provenance.

Worldwide White-Glove Delivery

Insured framing, installation and shipping, worldwide.

Who We Work With

Partners in Place-Making

Hotels & Hospitality

Lobbies, suites, restaurants and private lounges — signature works that give a property a sense of place and a story worth sharing.

Interior Designers

A discreet, dependable source of authentic Japanese art for residential and commercial schemes, with trade terms and full specification support.

Architects & Developers

Art considered from the outset — integrated into the architecture of lobbies, amenity floors and flagship residences.

Art Advisors & Curators

Rare, museum-grade pieces and bespoke commissions for discerning private and corporate collections.

What We Offer

From a Single Statement Piece to an Entire Collection

Bespoke Commissions

Original works created to your dimensions, palette and narrative — motifs drawn from Japan's classical canon or developed for your space.

Scale & Series

Extra-large single works and coordinated series for expansive walls, double-height lobbies and repeated guest-room schemes.

Curated Selection

Guidance through our collections to assemble a coherent, story-led set of pieces for a property or scheme.

Authenticity & Rarity

Genuine gold leaf, traditional weaving, each work one of a kind — accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
