Anne Valerie Dupond's precious "stuffed animal" is in stock.

Familiar with the "BUT BEAUTIFUL..." collection of the Japanese brand "UNDERCOVER,
Anne Valerie Dupond's plush toys, well-known for her "But Beautiful..." collection for the Japanese brand Undercover, are now in stock.

Do you know Anne Valerie Dupond?
If you are a fan of interior goods, you may have heard of her name.

Anne Valerie Dupond is an internationally acclaimed French textile sculptor.
Many people think of sculpture as something that involves carving stone or wood, but Anne's sculptures are created by combining various fabric materials, such as old clothes she no longer wears, fabrics used in old furniture that she has acquired from friends and family, and vintage lace.

I felt that the reuse of old things instead of throwing them away is similar to what we at Treasure Factory are doing.

No two plush toys are alike.
Each piece is made with Anne's thoughts and feelings as she breathes life into each one.

 

As described at the beginning of this article, Undercover's "But Beautiful..." collection released in the 2004 Fall/Winter season started with the designer JONIO TAKAHASHI's desire to "make clothes that look like stuffed toys," and it is said that JONIO TAKAHASHI was one of the major influences on his design process. The work of Anne Valerie Dupond is said to be one of his major influences in designing the collection.

Details like the stitching and the tweezers are also reminiscent of Anne's work.
This collection from the "But Beautiful..." period is still very popular and traded at a high price.
The designer, Jun Takahashi (JONIO), even says that it is a collection that he is deeply attached to.

In addition to UNDERCOVER, Anne Valerie Dupond has collaborated with famous brands and projects in the past, including COMME des GARCONS, KENZO, Yohji Yamamoto's accessory line KAYO NAKAMURA by Y's, and BE@RBRICK, which has fans around the world. 

It goes beyond interior design to inspire the fashion world.

Due in part to numerous collaborations with prestigious brands, the market price of her works has skyrocketed.
The quantity circulated in Japan is small, and it is a very rare and valuable item that is rarely seen even in secondary distribution.

We also believe that this product sold by our company was sold at the event "MAD MARKET AOYAMA (2013)" where personal items of UNDERCOVER designer JONIO were sold.

Please take advantage of this opportunity.
