"The name 'Päiväperho' combines 'päivä,' meaning 'day,' and a shortened form of 'perhonen,' meaning 'butterfly.' Heini shares, 'I love frolicking among flowers and butterflies in nature. 'Päiväperho' is a common nickname for butterflies, adding a touch of endearment. For me, they symbolize living in the moment, something precious that can only be appreciated now. It's beneficial for people to savor such fleeting moments in life—perhaps akin to how the Japanese value cherry blossoms. The butterfly motif has been a major theme in my creations over the years, showcasing its significance.'" ※こちらの商品は天然素材を使用しておりますので、品質についての留意点がございます。詳しくはページ下部の【お取扱いのご注意】をお読みください。
