Find items to brighten up your holiday season at a special pop-up at Isetan Salone in Roppongi
Isetan Salone, which offers a selection of sophisticated items carefully selected by Isetan buyers, will be hosting a pop-up of wine glasses and jewelry perfect for the holiday season from December 16th.

The two brands featured this time are glasses from FORIEGE, a spatial design brand designed by Yamada Takayuki, and VUGAS, a jewelry brand that debuted at the Italian exhibition PITTI UOMO.

Space production brand "Foliage"
Jewelry brand "Vagas"
The lineup includes a selection of items perfect for adding color to an adult's holiday, from beautiful wine glasses that are perfect for adding an artistic touch to your home party table to jewelry that will subtly yet elegantly polish up your winter outfit.



FORIEDGE, designed by Takayuki Yamada


FORIEDGE is a brand that expresses objects and spaces based on a sense of "discomfort," creating extraordinary things without being bound by convention.

For the first project, we teamed up with Tajima Glass, an Edo glass workshop, to create a product using Edo glass, a traditional Japanese craft, through trial and error, exploring how we could create a practical product with an extraordinary design.

"Toki W" (22,000 yen)
"Toki W" (22,000 yen)
This is the same glass as the one shown above. What's appealing is that the impression it gives changes completely depending on the color of the wine you put in it.

"Toki C" (¥20,000)
When drinking wine, people tend to swirl it quickly. Similarly, when drinking champagne, people often try to splash the bubbles away with chopsticks. This collection was created with the concept of turning back time slowly and without rushing, especially in this time-bound world.

By deliberately creating an uneven surface, the wine and champagne glasses mix properly even when you shake them slowly while looking at them. These wine and champagne glasses were created with the idea of "enjoying the drink slowly."

We will also be introducing a chic matte black glass, which is a bit unusual.

"Toki G mb" (¥20,000)
"Toki C mb" (¥24,000)
Champagne producers are said to place great importance on flavor as well as taste. In contrast, aren't consumers pursuing flashy appearances and ease of drinking? It is said that people judge 70% of a wine based on visual information. At Foliage, we created this matte glass to convey the pure feelings of the producers, by allowing the bubbles to dissipate in a short time, thereby closing off the sense of sight, allowing you to enjoy the flavor with your sense of smell and the sweetness with your taste buds.

We encourage you to come and check it out for yourself at the pop-up.



"VUGAS" is a jewelry brand crafted with handcraftsmanship reminiscent of traditional Japanese arts, unique to Made in Japan.


"VUGAS" is a unisex jewelry brand that debuted in Florence in January 2019 with the aim of presenting jewelry with a unique and original perspective.

These impressive pieces of jewelry are created with meticulous hand-carving, scraping and hammering by artisans who boast meticulous work and outstanding skills, and a careful finish that respects the traditional handiwork that is typical of Made in Japan.They are created from designer So.'s idea that "jewelry should not be seen as something to be fussy about, but rather something that can walk alongside you and add color to your everyday life..."




The brand's items are imbued with the hope that they will be worn not only by the owner, but also by family and partners, and that the wearer will be able to develop and enjoy the jewelry according to their own sensibilities, without being bound by rules.


Also, with the hope that each customer will give their piece a nickname and enjoy it as they grow attached to it, each item is named simply by its product number, and does not have a set name, giving us a glimpse into the brand's unique philosophy.


This pop-up features collections from both Foliage and Vagasse that are perfect as gifts. Be sure to take this opportunity to check them out in store.
