 A Crested Ibis Gliding Through the Morning Mist of Hokkaido

From the vast wetlands of Hokkaido, a single toki (Japanese crested ibis) descends gracefully through the morning mist.
In Japanese culture, the toki is a symbol of hope and renewal. This hand-carved wooden brooch, crafted by artisan Teruaki Tanaka of Tsubomi Studio, captures the quiet elegance of this rare bird in the palm of your hand.
