  "tagline": "Ochre, clay, moss, and bark — the natural pigments of Japanese craft.",
  "description": "Earth tones run through the full range of Japanese material culture: the iron-oxide browns of ceramics, the umber of aged lacquer, the mossy greens of forest paths, the warm greys of stone lanterns. Wada's catalog captures all of them — not as backdrop neutrals but as protagonists. These palettes are practical for interior design, residential branding, organic food and beverage, and any identity rooted in the natural world.",
