Hi! This is Naoko. Sorry for my long absence. Did you miss me??? \(*^o^*)\
Okinawa is one of the admired resort wedding destinations in Japan. Many couples seeking a romantic but unique wedding ceremony choose Okinawa as the place to start thier new life together. Beautiful blue and green gradation of sea water, sandy beach, tropical flowers, sea breeze, bright sunshine... all these things make the special day extraordinary.
If you want to look for a unique, truly Okinawan/Ryukyu ring, "Fusa yubiwa (tassle ring)" is the one. In the old times, only Ryukyu royal families and higher aristocrats used the ring in their wedding ceremonies.. The ring has the following 7 different motifs with meanings:
(Clockwise)
Butterfly - God's messenger
Fish - so that you won't starve
Peach - perpetual youth and longevity
Pomegranate - Fertility
Fan - eve-stopping good luck
Leaf - so that you will have enough clothes
Flower - life full of beauty
The only artisan who makes this ring is Mr. Matayoshi of Kuganizeku Matayoshi. You can buy the ring and other traditional Ryukyu silver accessories in his online shop @ http://kanzeiku.shop-pro.jp/
