Pure Silk Yorihimo Cord 2mm – Japanese Twisted Silk String Made in Kyoto

This pure silk yorihimo cord (2mm) is ideal for creating
delicate yet slightly more structured silk necklaces and accessories.
Crafted from high-quality 100% real silk, it remains lightweight while offering a comfortable, gentle feel against the skin.

Authentic Japanese 3-Ply Twisted Silk Cord (Mitsu-yori)

This cord is a three-ply twisted silk string (Mitsu-yori), made by twisting a bundle of three silk threads.
Each thread is brightly dyed in Nishijin, Kyoto, a historic textile district renowned for its refined silk dyeing traditions.

The result is a silk cord characterized by its soft texture, beautiful gloss, and consistent quality.

Soft, Comfortable Texture with Elegant Presence

Despite its slightly thicker size, this 2mm yorihimo cord maintains a gentle texture that
softly wraps around the skin, making it suitable for accessories worn directly on the body.

  • Smooth and pleasant to the touch
  • Lightweight yet visually defined
  • Uniform thickness for a refined finish
  • Natural silk sheen with elegant glossy colors

Recommended Uses

  • Minimalist jewelry
  • Silk necklaces with a bit more presence
  • Bracelets and accessory making
  • Handmade jewelry and craft projects

  • A softer and smoother feel
  • Greater flexibility and fluidity
  • A lighter texture suitable for everyday accessories

Please enjoy the gentle texture of yorihimo silk cord, which differs beautifully from kumihimo braided cords, in your daily life.
