Hasami Magnetic Pin Holder by Cohana
This durable, spool-shaped pin holder contains a strong magnet to store pins, needles, and paperclips neatly.
Fired at a low temperature by expert craftsmen, Hasami Magnetic Pin Holders boast a luster and texture reminiscent of ancient pottery. Each pin holder is finished with a colorful glaze to resemble a real spool of thread.
Designed to be used with needles standing up, it is easier to insert and remove needles with one hand than conventional pin cushions, making operations even smoother.
Inside of the spool is lined with soft felt to protect pin and needles from damage by direct contact with the ceramic base.
It is also recommended for needles such as cross-stitch needles with rounded tips that are difficult to insert into a fabric pin cushion.
The built-in magnet makes it convenient for picking up dropped pins and needles directly from your workstation.
Cohana's Seki Mini Scissor can also be attached to the sides, making it popular as a set for small needlework projects.
A smart and sophisticated way to organize your workspace or desk.

about our fabrics
For the past 12 years, we've been experimenting and refining our processes to work with the best natural fibers available. We select our materials for their durability, comfort, aesthetic properties, and the conditions in which they were produced. We prioritize suppliers located near our workshop. Many of our jerseys and knits are made in Canada, while some woven fabrics come from the United States. For more specialized materials, we work with Japan and certain European countries (mainly Italy and northern countries). It is essential for us to ensure that workers' conditions are fair, and the best way to be sure is to choose countries that have a charter of individual rights that resembles ours!
