Indie Biz ownerVictoria Close

Hi, I'm Victoria, long-term Tokyo dweller and vintage kimono wrangler.
I create one-of-a-kind jewellery and accessories from authentic vintage kimono fabric and other found Japanese objects in my Shimokitazawa studio.

The absolute BEST part of my job is sourcing kimono at antique and vintage markets, visiting off the beaten path vintage kimono vendors and being gifted whole collections of family kimono. I'm committed to repurposing forgotten things and I'm careful to only use damaged or unusable fabric.
