“Les Petites Mains “ was was designed as an elegant gardening tool set, created by Flower artist Keiko Yoshino, a flower art master who performs in Japan, Paris, London, and other locations internationally.
Comprised of beach-wood from Nigata prefecture is used with the “Snow Beech Project”: a program to effort to re-grow forests and make quality products, while revitalising the community. Long ago, these trees were used to produce charcoal for heat, but as charcoal was replaced by coal and oil, the forests were abandoned. The purpose of the Snow beech project is to ensure these materials are being used more effectively to prevent the wasting of limited resources, and to show our gratitude for the blessings of nature.
Japanese stainless steel is used for the blade with an enamel coating, the steel tip is exceptional because it is a special stainless that uses carbon. This rare combination works more efficiently because the steel is extremely hard and can dig into the ground much more forcefully than regular stainless steel.
White was chosen for the clean image to contrast with the soil, greenery, and flowers.
