Items that support harmony
Nekodamari Kobo was founded in December 2020 when we started selling our homemade clear beeswax wax in music stores.
Based on the brand concept of "items that support harmony," in just one year the products were sold at over 200 stores, and a record 20,000 units were manufactured, shipped, and exported overseas.
Through a strange coincidence, we ended up inheriting the machines that have been making pickups for Japanese-made guitars for over 50 years. As a result, we expanded our involvement from "items that don't make sound" to "items that are related to sound and create music."
Therefore, we have established a new brand concept related to sound: "Playing the sounds of the heart together," and are developing and manufacturing a variety of products.
What is a "cat gathering"?
"Nekodamari" is a coined word, but it brings to mind the image of a warm and cozy space where cats gather in a sunny spot, and we thought it would be nice to use it when doing something together as a family! We named it "Nekodamari Kobo" with the idea of creating something together as a family.

Don't open it!
A silhouette emerges.
Among them were cats working happily and harmoniously together.

Cat's gratitude =^_^=
On the other side of the shoji screen, the cats are working again today... I hope they can all get along and have more conversations!
