Anime-Inspired Bridal Rings

U-Treasure Makes a One Piece Engagement Ring Possible for Anime Lovers

— July 16, 2019 — Lifestyle
U-Treasure launched a slick One Piece engagement ring and wedding band to celebrate the birthday of Tony Tony Chopper -- a character from the cult-favorite Japanese animation. The design is surprisingly elegant and elevated, given its inspiration. The silhouette is available at U-Treasure's brick-and-mortar location in Tokyo's Shinjuku neighborhood, as well as online.

The One Piece engagement ring and band surely satisfy a niche in the wedding environment. However, the existing portion of that market is sure to consist of die-hard fans that would jump at the opportunity. Matching passion for anime with true love is always a safe bet.

U-Treasure engraves the One Piece engagement ring with the sakura flower petal, which is said to "symbolize the relationship between Chopper and Dr. Hiluluk. These references are done in a very subtle manner.
