Mizuhiki Necklace – Aioi Knot / Gold & Navy

A necklace featuring a hand-tied mizuhiki knot, made by Onishi Mizuhiki in Shikokuchuo City, Ehime Prefecture, a renowned home of Japanese mizuhiki craft.

The art of mizuhiki

Mizuhiki are decorative cords traditionally tied into knots to adorn gifts and celebrations in Japan. Each knot carries its own meaning, turning a simple cord into a wish for the person who receives it. Onishi Mizuhiki brings this traditional craft into modern life, creating accessories that let you wear its beauty every day.

The aioi knot: to live and grow old together

This pendant features aioi-musubi, a graceful circular knot formed by crossing and interlacing the cords again and again. Its name carries the wish "to live together, until we grow old together," making it a symbol of lifelong companionship and enduring love. The cords weave in and out of one another without beginning or end, a quiet expression of two lives bound together.

Gold and navy

Deep navy cords are edged with fine lines of gold, giving the knot a refined, quietly luxurious look. Suspended from a delicate gold-tone chain, the pendant stands out beautifully against dark knitwear or a simple neckline, and adds a subtle Japanese accent to both casual and formal outfits.

For everyday and special days

The piece comes from A/P, Onishi Mizuhiki's accessory line built around the idea of moving freely between hare and ke, the special occasions and the ordinary days of Japanese life. The pendant is modest in size and simple in design, easy to wear every day, yet meaningful enough for life's important moments.

A gift with a wish

With its message of growing old together, this necklace makes a heartfelt gift for a partner, an anniversary, a wedding, or anyone you hope to share many years with.

Handmade, one by one

Each knot is tied entirely by hand, so subtle differences in shape are part of the charm of every piece. It comes in a clear case, ready to give.
