Birds Are Dinosaurs
"子どもの頃、恐竜は6500万年前に絶滅したのだと覚えましたが、今の学説では現在生きている鳥類はすべて恐竜の一種である獣脚類の生き残りなのだそうです。手紙という文化も滅びずに、人間の営みがある限り続いてほしい。そのような願いから生まれたシリーズです。
ピンクゴールドの箔押しには微細な模様が入っている部分と入っていない部分があり、複雑で生き生きとした輝きが目を引きます。
Discovering a letter from long ago in your closet is akin to unearthing a fossil. After many years, the handwriting reminds you that the person who wrote it and the time in which it was written did exist. That is one of the reasons why we value the culture of letter-writing.
As a child, we learnt dinosaurs became extinct 65 million years ago. However, according to current theories, all birds alive today are survivors of theropods, a clade of the dinosaur. We designed this series being inspired by that fact and hoping the culture will also last as long as human activity continues.
The pink gold foil stamping features both fine patterns and smooth areas, creating a complex and vibrant shine that catches the eye."
