SCROLL
sobolon
Based on the concept of "protecting the earth with 'cute'", we manufacture handmade jewelry made from marine plastic that has washed ashore on the coast.
1
The material is marine plastic, which is considered to be a cause of marine pollution. Team members collect, wash, and grind their own eco-jewelry to create exciting eco-jewelry.
2
In order to make the most of the individuality of ocean plastic, we do not melt or color it at all, but design each piece according to the material. The entire process, from collection to production, is done by hand.
3
Ocean plastics come in a variety of colors, shapes, and textures. The combination creates a wide range of designs, so everyone is sure to find their favorite, regardless of their clientele.

Why are we doing?
Auto-translated
Instead of seeing garbage as garbage, we want to treat it as an important part of our planet.
This is the idea that runs at the root of Sobolon. Ocean plastics pollute the earth, and we humans generate them. It is easy to deny these things, but that does not build a prosperous society. Rather than looking at these things as "things that should not exist" or "things that should be lost," SOBOLON aims to find value in the excitement and excitement that can be created because they have negative aspects, and to coexist and circulate with them.
What I want to clean is "people's hearts"
What are the roots of environmental problems? If we dig deeper into this question, we will finally arrive at the "state of the human mind". In today's society, which has been completely swallowed up by convenience, rationality, and capitalism, it is easy to overlook the small beauty and brilliance that is invisible to the eye. Behind the huge growth of the economy, the global environment has been left behind as a compensation. Even if we carry out physical environmental activities, we who create society will not be able to realize a prosperous recycling-oriented society if our minds remain distorted. With this in mind, we at Sobolon are working on art activities that are close to people's hearts and appeal, even before environmental activities that clean up the global environment.
sobolon = [Soboro] ・・・ Means rags, shabby, shabby.
The name sobolon comes from the word "soboro", which is implied above. Originally, all things in the universe had unique value, but "shabby things" were deemed worthless by a single yardstick. Ocean plastic is one of them. If the number of people who have a perspective that can find value in this "shabby thing" increases, this society will become richer and more harmonious. With such a wish, we named it "sobolon".
What are we doing?
01Recovery of marine plastics
The marine plastics that are used as materials are picked up by the team members themselves. About once a month, we go from Gifu Prefecture, which is a sealess prefecture, to the sea in Aichi, Fukui, and Ishikawa prefectures to clean up the coast. Of course, we collect as much garbage as possible other than materials, and we are working with the mindset of cleaning up the beaches we visited that day.
02Separation and cleaning of marine plastics
The collected marine plastics are taken home, sorted by hardness and size, and washed. At this time, avoid using detergents and bleaches that pollute the water as much as possible, and carefully remove the dirt by hand by repeating the washing with water.
03Color coding of ocean plastics
The cleaned plastics are sorted by color. The cleaned plastics are so colorful that it's hard to believe that they were originally garbage, and they're already cute at this point...! I hope that these children will be reborn in a new form and be able to make people happy like they did when they were active in the past.
04Finely grind ocean plastic
The color-coded plastics will be finely crafted so that they can be used as jewelry materials. Even though it is grinded, it is all done by hand, and it is cut to a size of 3 ~ 10 mm using several types of scissors
05Jewelry design, fabrication and processing
The cleaned marine plastics are rehardened with a transparent resin called resin, which is cured by light. At that time, glitter and shell fragments are also included to give the impression of glittery jewelry. If there are many plastics of the same color, such as white and black, you can make the same pattern design, but basically the colors have a wide range of shades and brightness, so most of Sobolon's products are one-of-a-kind designs.
06Jewelry completed
Attach the accessory metal fittings to the manufactured parts and the SOBOLON jewelry is complete!
Commitment to the product
Commitment to design
Ever since I decided to make jewelry out of ocean plastic, I've tried a lot of different methods and gone through a lot of trial and error. Even after we finally arrived at our current form and released the product as SOBOLON, the design pattern has been brushed up year by year. First and foremost, I want to deliver the excitement of "cute"! That's what I think.No matter how environmentally friendly a product is, it is meaningless unless it is genuinely beautiful.I would like to continue to create jewelry that is cute, cute, and makes my heart excited.
Who are supporting us?
There are two types of customers who change through Sobolon.
The first is:The change from "for myself" to "for the earth".
At first, I was genuinely drawn to the design. Cute! I felt that. We often receive happy comments from customers who stopped by their own excitement and joy to encounter the perspective of "for the earth" through SOBOLON, which made them think about environmental issues and ethical lifestyles, and changed their daily lives and perspectives.
Second,The change from "for the earth" to "for myself".
Many people who are already interested in environmental issues and ethical lifestyles feel cramped by forcing themselves to endure or prohibit themselves. However, through my encounter with sobolon, I realized that it is important to be kind to the earth and enjoy yourself purely first! There are many people who notice a more sustainable and healthy stance.
