The first “UKIYO-E” leather is “Great Wave” by Hokusai.
This is really famous since many museums around the world exhibit it. You can find this on Japanese passport and a next generation 1000yen bill. Everyone knows this wave even though they don't know its title.
Modern Suri-shi paints this “Great Wave” on leather with a traditional method from the Edo period. We also challenge laser engraved UKIYO-E applying sculptured wood blocks for traditional UKIYO-E.
Please keep in mind that a few UKIYO-E leather will be released in one year since one piece of UKIYO-E leather takes time and methods.


UKIYO-E on Wa-shi can be enjoyed by only looking at it but what if UKIYO-E is printed on leather...?  We of course can take patterns from those leather and create leather gears with UKIYO-E. Modern Suri-shi paints UKIYO-E with traditional methods and PAIR SLOPE creates leather gears. We believe no one in the world has seen leather gears with UKIYO-E except our masterpieces.


PAIR SLOPE picks the wild taste horse leather for laser sculptured UKIYO-E. Bags and wallets made from horse leather themselves are difficult to find. Furthermore, precise and beautiful UKIYO-E on those gears makes them more valuable and fulfill your pleasure of possession.
