Mokume Gane is an ancient Japan metal-working process.

Its formation may be estimated to the 17th century, when the samurai sword was not only an instrument of war, but also the symbol of soldiers, since it symbolised the soul of the fighters.

The finishing and decoration of the swords also reflected owner’s social and financial state.

The Mokume Gane technology is the finest, the most complicated and the most valuable from among all sword-working processes. Its main point is forging together the metal layers having different properties, as a result of which steel swords imitating the wood vein were created.

Vioro Design Kft. has taken this ancient technology as a basis for designing its new exclusive collection. We have selected the noblest one from among the metals, the gold, and we have forged together the 18-carat gold layers of different colours in a similar way to the samurai swords.

As a result of the experiments the following patterns have been created: leopard spots, tiger stripes, zebra stripes, ocelot, swirl, lava, wood vein, annual rings. By continuously expanding our collection we would like to serve our customers’ individual demands and to implement their bravest dreams.
