ABOUT TRUEMWIRE
A life in lines.
Timeless beauty, from a single wire.
ONE ARTIST. COUNTLESS LINES.
In the palm of your hand,
the beauty of Japan.
TrueMwire is Small Luxury BONSAI Wire Art: the beauty of bonsai expressed in metal wire.
Every artwork is handmade in Japan by one wire artist, MAKOTO “真”. Gold-filled 14K and pure silver wires, 0.2–0.3 mm thick, are wound into delicate branches and foliage.
MAKOTO 「真」
THE PHILOSOPHY
Remove the ornament,
let presence reveal beauty.
Reduce decoration to a minimum and keep the colours in harmony.
Beauty that emerges from a quiet presence, rather than a bold statement.
Seeking art that will hold even greater value a hundred years from now.
