Arigato Project

Popocatépetl, a mythic Aztec warrior whose beloved princess Iztaccíhuatl died, promised to keep vigilant for her eternally. He became a volcano kneeling forever next to her. The warrior now travels to Japan in the shape of a fireplace to provide the same protection to Mount Fuji, who was struck by the tragedy but remains strong and alive like Popocatépetl that will, from now on, take care of Japan.

Forever guardian turns into a product made from the earth and molded with the strength of men and fire. A fireplace that keeps safe and warm.

Quarried stone and forged metal.
