Japan’s Hello Kitty has become a popular brand name globally. Hello Kitty is as cute as the other characters in Sanrio’s roster, like the Little Twin Stars. The accessories and merchandise bearing the Hello Kitty logo have become a mainstay in kids’ closets worldwide. The character itself is not difficult to draw, and so many imitation products have cropped up. However, original Sanrio accessories for Hello Kitty feature the best designs, coupled with the same quality that the Japanese are associated with.

Hello Kitty is already an established brand even before the internet came to be. Among the popular items are bags, shoes, shirts and pants. Lately, the popularity of Hello Kitty jewelry has been skyrocketing to rival all the other products. Here is a brief description of Hello Kitty and her origins.

The Origin of Hello Kitty

Hello Kitty is a British kitten named Kitty White, who has been raised in a loving home with many relatives. Most of her relatives have become famous in their own right, like Mimi and her Papa George. Kitty is a Japanese bobcat, an icon of luck in most Asian countries, especially in Japan. Businesses like restaurants and hotels all over Asia have a Japanese bobcat model somewhere with waving paws. Designer Yuko Shimizu came up with the design for Sanrio during the 1970s.

The design is clean and memorable. Kitty became famous for her fashion sense as well as her good manner as a little girl. There is an animated series around Kitty White’s story. She has become an ambassador for Japanese culture in China and Hong Kong during 2008.

Hello Kitty Necklaces And Rings

There are so many Hello Kitty rings from Sanrio that take the cake when it comes to cuteness. Some items are engraved with Hello Kitty’s logo or name. There are many fans of the brand that made Hello Kitty jewelry a part of their wedding and engagement plans. Hello Kitty necklaces are even more popular than rings because the necklace holds a special significance for Kitty. In Hello Kitty’s story, the key to Kitty White’s jewelry box dangles from her necklace. Some of the available necklaces online feature Hello Kitty prominently as a pendant.
