[COLLECTION] I made a Christmas gift for that special someone
Christmas is coming again this year~♪
Christmas is fast approaching! Choosing gifts for your loved ones, such as family, friends, lovers, partners, etc. can be both fun and troubling.
This time, we asked them to create Christmas gifts based on the theme, "If you were to give a gift from Aquvii to people who love Aquvii...", and they introduced it to us!
Please use this as a reference when choosing your gifts!

■ Person you want to send to
To Dan and Nana, who run the gallery HONNO PARK in Naha, Okinawa
I first met them 9 years ago, when a friend introduced me to DAN, who runs a select apparel shop called Plant & Soil, and I exhibited my work in a corner of the shop in 2015. Fast forward to November this year, and I was invited back to exhibit at HONNO PARK, the gallery that DAN just opened in January. DAN's partner NANA was also very kind to me during my time there, and I had a very meaningful time.
To express our gratitude to the two of them, and to congratulate them on their first anniversary, as HONNO PARK will be celebrating its first anniversary in January next month, we would like to send them an Aquvii plaster-shaped shortcake light.

PLASTER CAKE LIGHT
■ An episode with Aquvii <br>Going back 20 years? Just before Aquvii's first anniversary,
Our first meeting was when I visited his store in Daikanyama. I was a university student at the time and Kyozo was around 26 years old.
From the first time I visited the store, I was immediately impressed by everything at Aquvii.
I went there as a customer for a while, but then I started being invited to Aquvii events and exhibitions, and before I knew it, 20 years had passed. Aquvii is definitely one of the roots of my current craftsmanship.
There are many things I feel I am still able to do thanks to Kyozo's personality and the various connections he has made!
I love Aquvii~~~~

My name is Gigi, not Jiji.
Space and event decoration, or even florist.
I enjoy interacting with the flowers as if I were playing with them and having a conversation with them.
I like things that seem strange, mysterious, or surreal.
Gigi is a flower shop without a physical store.
