The Story
Sakura Beko is a modern interpretation of the traditional Akabeko. It features a soft pink finish inspired by cherry blossoms. Cherry blossoms or sakura and the season of spring primarily symbolize renewal, new beginnings, and the transience of life. It is a symbolic decorative object often displayed as a cultural keepsake or souvenir.
Each piece is hand-finished by artisans, so small variations in expression and paint make every item unique.
