December 3, 2025

From TAMARUSAN’s popular Animal Series, here are three unique glasses straps made with Kyoto-crafted braided cords and silver fittings. Perfect for insect lovers, animal fans, or anyone looking for a thoughtful gift.

For Insect Lovers: Silver Glasses Strap with Tiger Beetle & Gecko

First up is a fun and eye-catching design featuring illustrations of a tiger beetle and a gecko placed back-to-back inside clear resin. Depending on the angle, the artwork shows a different expression, making it an accessory you’ll enjoy every day.

The braided cord is a custom order from a Kyoto artisan, using a beautiful combination of deep red and green. It’s elegant, gender-neutral, and easy to style.

All metal parts are silver 925 with rhodium plating, making them resistant to tarnish and suitable for long-term use. This piece also makes a great gift.

Elegant & Stylish: Eagle Motif Glasses Strap

Next is a glasses strap featuring an eagle illustration sealed inside resin along with tiny beads for extra charm.
The cord—brown and light blue—is also specially commissioned from a Kyoto craftsperson and made with pure silk. The color contrast is refreshing yet sophisticated.

The design works well for all ages and genders, and adds a subtle artistic accent to your everyday glasses. Naturally, all the fittings are rhodium-plated silver 925.

Artful Everyday Style: Pink Dragonfly Glasses Strap

Our third pick showcases a delicate dragonfly illustration placed inside resin.
The pink two-tone braided cord, crafted by a Kyoto artisan, has a soft and elegant color balance that makes it perfect for both casual and dressy looks.

The silver fittings feature silver 925 with rhodium plating, keeping the accessory shiny and durable over time. It’s a popular option for gifts as well.
