Origin of the Brand Name PUERTA DEL SOL is an accessories brand that designer Tomoyasu Hirano established in 1995. Previously making the most of the experience concerned with prototype production of ladies jewelry, these prototypes are also made by his hands.

The brand name PUERTA DEL SOL comes from a place in Madrid Spain and the name means «Sun Gate», it is also shown as point zero on road origins. It means starting from nothing and includes that the designer himself received great influence from the likes of Spanish writers and architectural structures.

The brand concept is «Rock & Luxury». The meanings of the two words are: «Rock» which means not only the nature of music but also represents style and doing the things one wants to do. «Luxury» signifies doing the things you want to do and being stylish are true luxuries.

In 1999, it was categorized as IP jewelry, announcing the jewelry that has black and blue color emissions made of titanium, and in the same year announced the accessories that uses chess in its design. The chess knight design as the icon of PUERTA DEL SOL was proposed and unfolded in a series in various forms including a necklace with luxurious specifications of platinum and diamonds.

Since the designer thought that diamonds would like to be worn casually and elegantly by both men and women alike, numerously treated items of platinum, gold and silver based diamonds were unfolded.

In 2000, as a space for expressing the brand concept more strongly, opened the first roadside shop in Ebisu and in addition to the gigantic remodeling of the Ebisu store in 2004, opened the Isetan Shinjuku shop that became the second shop under direct management.
