オリオン星雲 Orion Seiun (Orion Nebula)

$65.00

This yubinuki was inspired by a James Webb photo of the Orion nebula and has more color changes than any other yubinuki I’ve designed. The combination of color changes and rectangular flecks created by “weaving” some threads under others creates the illusion of color blending—your eye will see colors that aren’t actually there.

This yubinuki is sold as a necklace on 21” silk cording, but can be removed from its cord and worn as a thimble if desired. Yubinuki are designed to be worn between the top two joints of the index or middle finger when used as thimbles. If you intend to wear it as a ring, it is a size 8.

Metal chains and custom kumihimo cords are available as an add-on.

  • Yubinuki: Silk thread, silk batting, cotton

    Necklace: Hand-dyed silk cord, nickel-free plated base metal findings

  • While yubinuki are tougher than they look, please remember that the core of the ring is cardstock and batting, not metal, and take care not to toss it in a bag where it may be crushed out of shape by something heavy. For transport, make sure it is protected by a box or placed around a ring cushion to help it hold its shape.

    If you need to clean your yubinuki, use cold water on a cotton bud and gently dab it along the stain. Follow the direction of the threads to avoid disordering them.

    Store out of direct sunlight, as it will cause the colors to fade over time.
