Spotlight on Futagami

We can’t wait for our exhibition next week! We’ll be showcasing the complete Futagami collection in addition to their latest architectural hardware line, MATUREWARE. More information about the opening night where we will be unveiling the collection can be found here. In anticipation for the event, I just wanted to share some images from a recent Futagami foundry visit since it’s fresh in my memory. I am always mesmerized when owner Mr. Toshihiro Futagami gets involved in the brass casting process. It never ceases to amaze! He told us in the past how his favorite part of the making process is releasing the fully set brass out of it’s sand mold to reveal a completed object. After witnessing the tedious casting process a couple times now, I understand the joys in taking a material like brass and transforming it into a beautiful design. Just wanted to give a small glimpse into the world of Futagami and leave off with these images.
