Message from the Company President
Takashi Fujimori
President of Fujimori Inc., Jewelry Designer, Master of Business Design (MPD)
Born in Tokyo in 1976, he aspires to travel around the world on a budget. He has visited around 60 countries to date, including two round-the-world trips, one trip across Asia, a bicycle trip to Eastern Europe, and had climbed Mount Kilimanjaro.
The brand name "MITUBACI" refers to "kiss me" in Italian. The naming came to me when I studied abroad in Italy around 20 years ago. I have always wanted to create jewelry that one cherishes and loves so much that one would kiss them.
MITUBACI TOKYO is a workspace where customers and craftsmen work together to create high-quality jewelry by hand. Leveraging on our 50-year expertise in jewelry-making, we offer first-hand jewelry-making experience and share with customers in greater detail about the art of jewelry-making without compromising on the quality of the product.
We strive to bring the joy, appreciation, and wonders of craftsmanship. We aspire to continue creating meaningful jewelry with everyone.
A Word from Our Artisans
Lala Sugai
Joined 2023
Initially I worked part-time at MITUBACI for a year while studying at a jewelry school.
After graduation, I re-joined the company as a full-timer in 2023.
Attraction of the work
It is my rewarding experience to create jewelry with customers and make them happy. Now, as a craftsman, I am working on improving my basic technical skills as well as challenging myself with many difficult processes. Many of our customers come from overseas, so I am also working hard to improve my English skills so that I can enjoy communicating with them. Thanks to the flexible work shift, I can spend a lot of time on travel and hobbies, and I can also fulfill my private life.
For future colleagues
Even if you feel like you are about to make a mistake, our seniors will always support you and make it easy for you to take on various challenges. I look forward to working with you all.
Kazuki Torimitsu
Joined 2022
Mid-career
After graduating from a jewelry school, I worked in jewelry production and customer service for 15 years. 2023, I changed jobs and am working immediately at MITUBACI.
Attraction of the work
The ability to complete high quality jewelry with advanced processing on the same day and deliver smiles to customers' faces on the same day is a unique strength of MITUBACI, and I find it very rewarding. I believe this is made possible by our full-scale facilities, the high level of technical skills of each individual, and the united efforts of our backup staff.
For future colleagues
At MITUBACI, we have many customers not only from Japan but also from overseas. I do not speak English at all, so I was at a loss at first, but most of the customers understand me through demonstrations of work and a few English words, and I am able to work with a positive attitude every day without being timid. I feel that this is a special environment where I can learn not only special skills such as lathe processing, but also the attitude of customer service. We look forward to your entry.
Jun Yanaizumi
Joined 2018
I have always loved detailed work since I was a child and wanted to become a craftsman. I pursued my passion and furthered my studies in this major. After graduation, I joined the company and helped out in other areas. In 2019, I focused mainly on MITUBACI TOKYO workshops.
Attraction of the work
I find it rewarding to hear out the customers and create jewelry with them that meets their wishes! Seeing them smiling and satisfied gives me a sense of accomplishment every time.
Before this job, I had no experience traveling abroad and could barely speak English. I had the opportunity to travel to Singapore with a senior colleague for promotional events at our sister store. These opportunities are an eye-opener, and we overcame the language barrier and created jewelry with the customers.
For future colleagues
The craftsmen at MITUBACI TOKYO are patient and willing to teach. They are more than willing to guide you through everyday operations, and it is also easy to consult with them if you have any questions! We look forward to receiving your application!
