Kimono obi belts are synonymous with Japan's rich heritage and culture but are rarely used in daily life these days. As every piece of obi is a work of refined mastery, Takaokaya purposed to give pre-loved obi belts a "second life" by transforming these traditional garments into our signature Ojami cushions —a modern tool for relaxation. Now, these obi belts can once again be admired and appreciated not only for their beauty but also comfort.

Through this gallery, we hope to inspire you with the beauty of these vintage obi belts and how it can be a statement piece of comfort and artistry for your home. Join us on this visual exploration of the transformation process from obi to Ojami, where we deconstruct a traditional piece of garment to create another masterpiece that emanates artisanal Japanese craftsmanship.
