Sapphire

A princess who has both a boy's heart and a girl's heart in an angel's prank. Because he was raised as a prince, he is an expert swordsman.

The Girl with the Flaxen Hair

Sapphire disguises herself by wearing a wig with flaxen hair. She dresses up as a flaxen-haired maiden and falls in love with Franz, a prince from a neighboring country, at a ball she attends.

About the Princess Knight

This is the first issue of Japanese story girls' manga. Osamu Tezuka, who spent his childhood in Takarazuka, created a fantasy that translated the atmosphere of the Takarazuka Revue into a girls' manga, and had a great influence on later girls' manga. One way to express this is by drawing sparkling stars in your eyes. Each edition was well-received for its color composition of 3 pages in 3 colors and 4 pages in 2 colors, but these colors and screen compositions were greatly influenced by the movie ``The Tales of Hoffmann,'' which was released in Japan in 1952.

The pattern on the sword's handle was recreated under the supervision of Tezuka Productions, and the design is a miniature version of the sapphire sword, allowing you to easily wear the sapphire sword.

Sapphires and rubies carefully selected by jewelry buyers who have bought and sold over 1 million stones in total

Since this is a piece of jewelry to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the start of the ``Knight of the Ribbon'' series, we wanted to be particular about the jewelry used, so KARATZ, who has bought and sold over 1 million stones in total, selected the jewelry himself. The gemstones used this time were purchased in Thailand, the world's largest gemstone hub, and Hong Kong, where the gemstone trade is flourishing. The blue sapphires are from Madagascar and Sri Lanka, and the rubies are from Myanmar, both of which are of high quality.We also use colors that are comparable to royal blue and pigeon blood, which are famous for their highest quality. We are proud that we have created authentic jewelry that allows you to feel the high quality and goodness of the jewelry just by looking at it.

Original reproduction of the jewelry worn by the flaxen-haired maiden, supervised by Tezuka Productions.

Taking into consideration the patterns and historical background used in "Knight of the Ribbon", we have improved the details so as not to disrupt the original design image. The blue sapphire of the middle stone is a color-changing type from Sri Lanka that is vivid and beautiful even without heating. The color changes from blue to purple depending on the light source, expressing the boy's heart and girl's heart of the main character Sapphire. In addition, by surrounding it with mele-sized blue sapphires in the same hue, we made it larger and made it stand out. Furthermore, baby pearls and rose cut diamonds are set on the outside for a classic atmosphere. We have also added effects that match the historical background of "Knight of the Ribbon." The necklace part is a 100cm double strand pearl necklace made of Akoya pearl beads with good texture.
It's nice to use it as is, but since the top part of the pendant can be removed, you can enjoy it in 3 ways by replacing the attached parts and wearing it as a brooch around your collar, like the main character Sapphire, or as a pearl necklace alone. Masu.

Middle stone: Unheated color change blue sapphire from Sri Lanka 5.014ct

Osamu Tezuka
& Princess Knight

This is the first issue of Japanese story girls' manga.
Knight of the Ribbon began serialization in the January issue of 1953 (Showa 28) in "Shoujo Club".
Osamu Tezuka brought manga that not only provided laughter but also had an eventful story to magazines for girls, which until then had focused on reading material.
Girls at the time were completely captivated by the thrilling developments each time, and it had a great influence on the girls' manga artists that came after it, making it a turning point.

The Ribbon Knight is a work born out of nostalgia for the Takarazuka Revue, as he himself has described it as ``the culmination of the Takarazuka experience.''
Because of this, he seems to have had a strong attachment to it, and has drawn the Ribbon Knight four times (the fourth time was only the original draft). After I finished drawing the final Ribbon Knight, I moved away from girls' manga.
