Introduction of 3D Design Stainless Steel Ginrin-銀鱗-

GINRIN-銀鱗- is a mirror stainless steel that expresses the texture of scales in three dimensions.

We have been developing a mysterious stainless steel mirror that pays homage to the surface of the water, and now we have developed it with the idea of combining it with various polishing processes.

As before, the reflection of light is beautiful and reflects very beautiful ripples of light.

Origin of Ginrin’s-銀鱗- development

Our company is located in Dazaifu City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

The location of our company is adjacent to the embankment of MIZUKI(水城), a place where defenders(SAKIMORI防人) of the city used to live, which is mentioned in the Manyoshu(万葉集). We are embraced by Dazaifu, an ancient city with a rich history.

Speaking of Dazaifu, there is Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, which is dedicated to Sugawara no Michizane, the guardian god of Dazaifu. It is the spiritual center not only of Dazaifu citizens but also of Fukuoka and Kyushu.

The story of the Kirin that served as a model

At Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, there is a bronze statue of a Qilin, the chief of all beasts that appear in the world of peace.
The Qilin, a legendary creature

The legend and meaning of the Qilin is as follows
“The Qilin is said to appear as a harbinger of good things to come. The Qilin is said to be a harbinger of good things to come, bringing stability and peace, a sign of a peaceful world, and a symbol of happiness.

Lore of the appearance of the Qilin

According to legend, it has the body of a deer, the tail of a cow, the hooves of a horse, and a dragon-like face with a single horn. Its fur is said to be yellow and covered with scales, and the hair on its back is said to be colored in five different colors.

His entire body is covered in shimmering scales.

A tribute to the scales of the qilin, wishing for a peaceful world

The new coronavirus that has been raging since last year has hit our lives and our economy hard. Last year was a year of great suffering and patience.

Although there is still no sign of an end to the virus this year, I have placed a wish on the Qilin of Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, the guardian deity of Dazaifu, Sugawara no Michizane, in the hope that the world will return to peace as soon as possible and that everyone will lead a peaceful life.

I also wanted to light up the world with my shining scales, so I commercialized Ginrin.

Finally.
