Titanium kleptomaniac

A kleptomaniac is someone who is obsessed with collecting things. It's the word repeatedly came to my mind as I watched one of our staff members run around Tokyo like crazy, collecting any titanium product she thought was cool.

I realize now that her mania was quite justified. Titanium, it turns out, is a very cool metal with some unique properties.

It's amazingly light, strong and non-allergenic to boot. And if the surface is oxidized in a certain way, it starts to exhibit anti-bacterial qualities too.

So we were informed through an hour-long lecture from the folks at HORIE Corporation who are leaders in titanium surface engineering. As you can see on their line of titanium mug cups these guys have perfected the art of bringing out awesome iridescent colors on the surface of Titanium without using any paint at all!

Enough blabbering. Best seen with thine eyes.

Titanium Hair Sticks

Your looks can probably kill. But if you need an extra edge try a hair stick.

These cute hair sticks were definitely made to kill. They take up a subtle position in your hair, but once discovered by an innocent onlooker - WhaBang! (Sound of onlooker biting the dust) They just can't help making a lasting impression.

Called "Kanzashi" in Japan, hair sticks have been an integral part of women's fashion since the Edo era. Naturally, it looks great with the kimono, but would also fit right in with modern clothing.

These ones are fashioned out of pure Titanium. Yes, I know that sounds a little over-kill for a mere hair stick, but the high-tech choice is not without cause. Titanium is very light and strong, having the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal. And it's non-allergenic so it would be a good choice for people with sensitive skin.

But I would simply get this just for the cool colors. You'd be surprised to know that the brilliant base color is not the effect of some pigment. The awesome iridescence is achieved with a thin layer of Titanium Oxide on the surface that is made to reflect light in a certain way. Very cool technology.

The beauty of Japanese lacquer revived with high-tech Titanium

Japanese lacquer is a dying art. Despite all its beauty and its hundreds of years of history behind it, the fact is that lacquer - or "urushi" as we call it - doesn't really appeal to the newer generation. Japanese lacquer products belong in museums and in your grand-dad's alcove. Looks good. But please keep it away from my modern, IKEA-furnished designer apartment.

That's how I felt until I saw the latest line of Titanium cups from Rhus. What caught me was their undeniably modern look despite the ancient Japanese motifs. The guys at Rhus told me each one is hand coated with layers and layers of authentic Japanese lacquer by seasoned artisans. It's a very painstaking process because the lacquer has to dry each time before a new layer is applied. And it takes a lot of experience to know exactly how the depth and color of the lacquer are going to come out in the end.

The beauty of lacquer lies in the subtle details. Let the light play on the surface and you'll find it's like an black ocean with rich, deep colors revealing themselves in almost unnoticeable variations.

And of course, the Titanium factor just makes it even cooler. Rhus selected the high-tech material because it doesn't rust, taste or smell. This is important if don't want the cup to interfere with the flavor of your drink. This is a piece of art that's really meant to be used and enjoyed every day. I'm not a big fan of impractical objects that are just meant to sit and look pretty, so I immediately took to this utilitarian aspect as well. In fact Rhus assures me that the color of the lacquer will change and mature over a period of many years. Hmmm. That's another level of appreciation to look forward to.

All in all, a great cup for those who love the traditional crafts.
