japanese studio daisuke motogi has created a collection of accessories called ‘bunkai pierce’ and ‘sakkaku pierce’ that playfully flirt with color, pattern and texture for massitem. the brightly colored acrylic discs make up a set of earrings that sway as the user wears them, as the discs meeting points are broken, a rainbow of hues reveal themselves. other varieties include the gingham and stripe style which play on the art of optical illusion.

there’s nothing more frustrating than looking at products that are awesome and having no way of finding out how to purchase them… 🙁

You can find them here, but I’m afraid is a japanese website, so I am not sure if they send to the rest of the world. http://toumei.asia/?s=mass+item
