This article details how every aspect of the boutique—from the serene interior design and natural textures to the welcoming ambiance—was conceived with omotenashi (the Japanese spirit of hospitality) in mind. 

The article also emphasizes the stories behind our brand: that our jewelry is handmade in Kofu, Japan, using 18K gold and natural diamonds, with special attention paid to the symbolism of connection through design (like our samurai braided cord and “HC” motif). 

JCK notes that with our roots in Japanese heritage and our values of wa no kokoro (harmony) and quiet elegance, building a Los Angeles boutique felt like the perfect next step in bringing KIMITAKE’s intimate, thoughtful experience to the community.
