Miffy Meets Tradition: Introducing the Korean Nacre Collection
The beloved Dutch rabbit character Miffy is getting a stunning cultural makeover. This new drop celebrates the intersection of timeless design and Korean artistic heritage through an exclusive collaboration featuring traditional nacre (mother-of-pearl) craftsmanship. It's a charming fusion that honors both Miffy's minimalist aesthetic and Korea's centuries-old artisanal tradition.
The Magic of Korean Nacre: A Thousand Years of Brilliance
For over a thousand years, Korean artisans have perfected the art of nacre craftsmanship, known locally as "Najeon-chilgi." This traditional technique involves meticulously hand-cutting clamshells and inlaying them onto lacquered surfaces to create pieces that shimmer with an otherworldly iridescence.
The nacre material itself, called "jagae" in native Korean, is nature's own light show. Each shell fragment reflects light in approximately six different brilliant colors, creating a mesmerizing effect that shifts as you view it from different angles. The depth and luminosity of this material make every piece a work of art—no two items are exactly alike.
What makes this collection particularly special is how the soft, iridescent glow of nacre perfectly complements Miffy's soft, approachable character design. The simple lines and gentle nature of Miffy drawings become even more enchanting when rendered in the shimmering palette of traditional mother-of-pearl.

The Collection: Where Cute Meets Craftsmanship
This limited-edition drop features carefully curated items that blend functionality with beauty. Whether you're looking for jewelry, decorative pieces, or collectibles, each item in this collection represents hours of dedicated handiwork by skilled Korean artisans.
The pieces showcase Miffy in her iconic poses, rendered in the soft whites and pale pinks of the nacre inlay, creating an almost ethereal quality. When light catches these items, the subtle color shifts—from soft whites to warm golds and hints of blue, bring Miffy to life in an entirely new way.
