A collaboration project with creators/brands who resonate with TUCKSHOP's brand message: "PLAY WITH (UNIFORM). Don't be uniformed."
A series of wooden carved works from a capsule collection with seto totempole souvenir, an artist who creates carved wooden figures from local wood and scrap materials in Seto City, Aichi Prefecture.
This work was created in resonance with TUCKSHOP's 2025AW theme, "NOTIFICATION: OFF" ── a time to step away from the hustle and bustle and connect with nature and oneself. The figures, carved in a quiet environment away from digital distractions, bring a small "space" and "awareness" to everyday life.
Furthermore, this work also supports the custom of "drawing one eye" seen in Japanese Daruma culture. There is also the joy of raising it as your own small amulet - drawing a pupil in one eye with a wish, and adding the other eye when the wish is fulfilled.
This collaboration includes a tote bag printed with an original pole. This is a special item that can be enjoyed with the artwork.
【ORA-01】 features an orange face on top and an animal figure on the bottom. Due to the artist's nature, each piece is one-of-a-kind. The logo is printed on the back.

seto totempole souvenir
An artist who creates carved wooden figures from local wood and scrap materials in Seto City, Aichi Prefecture. They participate in thinning activities in the Seto forest, creating a cyclical manufacturing process that returns regional natural resources to production.
They re-evaluate the "handmade souvenir culture" that once existed, and through collecting and researching local toys and foreign folk art, they have carefully deciphered the activities and cultural background of the land. Based on this learning, they create carved wooden figures imbued with the simplicity and warmth of Seto, with the goal of conveying the charm of the Seto region and creating opportunities for people to visit.
