I don’t remember how first I found LOOPWHEELER on Instagram, and saw the photos they took with phone in a week-light environment—at least it seems so. However, the quality looked amazing.
A few notes about the brand:
Founded in 1999 by Satoshi Suzuki.
The “loop wheel” machines were replaced by mass production in mid 1960s. Now only two “loop wheel” factories in Wakayama prefecture exist, with 400 machines, yet about 200 in operation.
Each piece of Loopwheeler product is made by hand.
