“Sakura evokes the graceful elegance of accessories that enhance one's personal style. 
“Luxury” reflects our pride in offering high-quality wires, made with Japanese precision.

Voice of Inventors

Our wires are made from the selection of raw materials to the final manufacturing process. 
We assure the stable strength and resistance to natural curving of our wires. 
This effort gave us absolute confidence in the high quality.

All wire products we provide undergo rigorous quality and length inspections by our experienced professionals, ensuring minimal inconsistencies in wire length.

Minimal Kinks (Low coiling)

Minimal kinks (low coiling)

Most of those counterfeits made overseas use metal strings with low resilience, which results in kinks or coils remaining after they are pulled from the spools.

Rigorous Product Quality Controls

Rigorous Inspections by Instrumentations

Rigorous Inspections by Instrumentation

Tensile testing machines and outer-diameter measuring machines are equipped. We have standardized procedures to rigorously test wire strength and wire diameter.

Professional Inspectors and Tests

Professional Inspections and Tests

To maintain our high product quality, our professional inspectors conduct 10 quality tests (7 standard wire twisting tests, strength, diameter, and hand feel).

In-House Integrated Production

In-House Integrated Production

About Product Quality
The wire products are made of stainless steel.
The strands are made from stainless steel, and the coatings are made from polyamide resins (nylon).
The difference lies in the construction of the wire rope. * **1x7:** This means the rope is made of 1 strand, and that strand itself is composed of 7 individual wires. * **7x7:** This means the rope is made of 7 strands, and each of those 7 strands is composed of 7 individual wires. Therefore, a 7x7 rope is a more complex and generally more flexible construction than a 1x7 rope, as it has more total wires and is arranged into multiple strands.
7-strand type (1x7) is twisted from 7 strands of wire, which is the most basic standardized wire product. 49-strand type (7x7) is twisted from 7 sets of 7-strand type, offering high flexibility and the ability to be used in creations with complicated designs.
Where in the U.S. is the wire production facility?
All of our wire products are manufactured in our own in-house factory located in Osaka Prefecture.
Are the raw materials made in Japan?
Basically, the raw materials we are using are made in Japan, while some of them are from overseas.
About Issues
The stainless steel wire rusted.
The definition of stainless steel is that the metal is highly rust-resistant, and is not completely rust-proof. Rusting can occur under certain storage or use conditions.
About Colors
Are custom colors available?
Specific color coatings are available. If the desired color number or a color sample can be provided, we will consult with the coating color manufacturer and check availability. There will be an additional charge for the coated nylon if the color is available.
About Wire Length (made to order)
What are the wire length options?
Essentially, wires of 10m, 30m, 100m, and 1,000m lengths are available. 
Another specific length can be made available if needed.
Others
Stainless steel is generally considered safe and biocompatible, meaning it doesn't typically cause adverse reactions when in contact with the human body. It's widely used in medical implants, surgical instruments, and even in jewelry. However, some individuals might have allergies to specific metals often found in stainless steel alloys, such as nickel. Reactions can include skin irritation, redness, or itching. Nylon is a synthetic polymer that is also considered safe for direct contact with the human body. It's used in a variety of applications, including textiles for clothing, medical devices like sutures and catheters, and even in some food packaging. Generally, nylon does not cause allergic reactions. However, like with any material, there's a very rare possibility of a sensitivity reaction in some individuals, which might manifest as skin irritation.

< Only Japanese information is available. > 
Since stainless steel is commonly used in tableware, household items, and even medical devices, it is considered a highly safe metal; under normal conditions of use, it poses no risk to human health. 
*Please refrain from using this product, as we cannot be held responsible for any effects on the human body under conditions other than normal usage.

*Please refrain from using this product, as we cannot be held responsible for any effects on the human body under conditions other than normal usage.

What storage method is suggested?
Nylon-coated colored wire may fade due to UV (ultraviolet) rays. Please refrain from storing it in places exposed to direct sunlight or strong UV (ultraviolet) rays. Also, stainless steel wire may rust in humid places or coastal areas, so please be careful when storing it.
Please tell me how to remove the nylon coating from the wire.

SakuLux®‘Its nylon coating is highly tenacious, and thus removing it without damaging the wire itself is difficult. It is possible to remove it, however, no guidelines are available, and we cannot be held responsible for any resulting circumstances.
