Mokume-Gane, which translates to wood-grained metal, does not contain any iron. Due to its difficulty, this ancient art was nearly lost in the twentieth century, but was revived in the 1970s by Eugene Michael Pijanowski and Hiroko Sato Pajinowski. Today, consumers and connoisseurs can find jewelry, flatware, and other pieces made from Mokume-Gane.
