When you think about it, making a ring isn't that difficult.
At amakuni, we offer a plan that allows couples to make their own rings.
If you make it with your own hands, it is sure to become a treasured item, and the process of making it itself will become an irreplaceable memory for the two of you.
Even though it is rugged,
I like things that convey my feelings
The average price for Amakuni to make a pair of rings for two people is about 200,000 to 300,000 yen, but since the rings are a joint project between the two of you, I came up with what I think would be a fair price. Since the price of precious metals fluctuates, I cannot give you a detailed price here, but I would be happy if you would consider the following information.
Material cost (13,000 yen/g for 18k gold) + studio fee (50,000 yen on the first day, 25,000 yen/day from the second day onwards) = price of the ring
For example, to make an average-thickness 18-karat wedding ring, you would use about 3-6g of gold per ring. Assuming the total weight of the two rings is 8g, the production cost would be the studio rental fee of 50,000 yen plus my support.
10.4 + 5 = 154,000 yen (excluding tax).
*Please understand that material costs will vary depending on the precious metal market price on the day.
In addition, if you melt down and reuse your jewelry, we will charge you an additional fee of 10,000 yen or more (the amount varies depending on the amount of effort required, such as for products with stones) as a fee for recycling the materials.
For example, the two people who came to make a ring the other day completed it in about 7 hours (one day). They were involved in manufacturing, but I think that anyone who wants to try making something on their own is ready. It's okay to have scratches and distortions. It will surely become an irreplaceable item.

A couple who made their own rings
Yatsugatake is located a two-hour drive from Tokyo and three hours from Nagoya.
A beautiful place where interesting people with new sensibilities gather from the city. It is sunny all year round, the air, water and vegetables are delicious, and outdoor activities are plentiful. And above all, the people who gather here are very open and pleasant. Interesting people from all over the country are now gathering in this place, which reached its peak during the Jomon period.
My wife and I were enthralled by the Yatsugatake Mountains when we visited my mentor's exhibition in August 2020, and decided to move to the area at the end of that year.
We had everything we wanted here. Compared to the city, it's a place with almost nothing, but for the people who live in the area where I live, there is the bare minimum infrastructure, and there is a supermarket that sells delicious locally grown vegetables and organic processed foods, so it's not at all inconvenient.
This is a place where humans and nature coexist in perfect balance, and where you can really sense that humans are part of nature and that nature sustains them.
I urge everyone to come and experience Yatsugatake for themselves.
You might discover something that you both really need.
It's not too late to start making rings.
First, I want you to come to Yatsugatake. You can make the rings after that.
The ring is responsible for the prosperity of humanity
It is often said that wedding rings are just tools, but I believe that among the many tools created by humanity, they are unique and are responsible for the prosperity of humanity.
Amakuni does not just make rings.
We create rings that will inspire you to reexamine what is truly important.
I am looking forward to meeting more couples.
