Hankyu Umeda hosts a week-long pop-up for resin-jewellery label JUTIQU
Hankyu Umeda's first-floor accessories event space runs a week-long JUTIQU pop-up from 5 to 11 August, giving the resin-and-pearl jewellery label — built around pieces it calls "wearable sculpture" — a temporary spot on one of the store's busiest floors.
Hankyu Hanshin Department Stores said in a release that it will run a limited-run JUTIQU shop in Hankyu Umeda's first-floor accessories event space from 5 to 11 August. JUTIQU, founded in 2010, builds jewellery around transparent resin set with pearls or cubic zirconia, a technique the brand markets under the concept of "wearable sculpture," crafted by Japanese artisans.
The pop-up brings the brand's Glam series alongside new heart-motif rings and bangles in white and black tones, with prices from ¥24,200 for a silver pearl ring up to ¥89,100 for a resin bangle set with pearls and zirconia, according to the release.
It's a small item, but a useful one for reading what's cycling through Hankyu Umeda's ground floor this month: a domestic, artisan-made jewellery label at a premium-but-accessible price point, running for a single week rather than a season — the kind of short, low-commitment slot department stores use to keep a high-traffic floor feeling current between larger tenant changes.
