Handmade Wedding Bands Challenge
In the Heart of Sangenjaya
MITUBACI TOKYO is a 1-minute walk from Sangenjaya station (only 4 minutes from Shibuya by train), located on the 4th level of the retro-looking Royal Mansion building.
Reception
Design Consultation
Before getting started, you will be shown some jewelry samples. After deciding on your designs, you're good to get started!
The Making Begins
Start of production
Once you have decided on the material and color of your ring, our artisan will prepare a strip of metal—the very material used to make your ring. Repeatedly applying pressure to the metal strip through the Tanzo process in this workshop increases its density along with durability, thus ensuring your jewelry to last a lifetime.
30 Minutes In
Engraving
Engrave on the metal strip with either metal stamps or hand engraving by machine. You may choose to make your own ring or exchange with your partner!
1 Hour In
Shaping
The metal strip is bent with a wooden hammer around a ring mandrel. Once it takes the shape of a ring, the metal is further compressed with a ring stretcher to increase its durability, which is achievable only through the Tanzō forging method.
The soldering process comes next and closes up the gap in the ring. At this stage, workshop participants will be able to experience handling the torch under close guidance by our veteran artisans.
※ Please note that the soldering of Platinum 950 will be handled by the artisans solely.
Achieving The Perfect Fit
You will be asked to try on the ring during the DIY processes. This ensures you to achieve a better fit than when you purchase ready-made rings!
2 Hours In
Filing and Sanding
More tools are used to smoothen the surfaces of your ring.
2 Hours 30 Minutes In
Texturing
You will then apply your desired textures to the plain ring.
What's Popular?
The hammered texture is one of the most popular textures. You and your partner can choose to work on each other's ring!
If you wish to have diamonds or other stones set into the stone, our craftsmen will work on it with great care.
Same day pickup even with gemstone setting
Our strength is that we are a real jewelry workshop that usually makes custom-made wedding rings. Because we have professional craftsmen, authentic equipment, and a diverse inventory of gemstones at all times, we are able to offer same-day finishing of stone clasps that other similar classes cannot provide.
