Introducing Seki: A Study in Craft, Sensation, and the Beauty of Trace
On a recent sourcing trip, we discovered Seki, a BDSM range unlike anything we’d seen before. What captivated us first was the craftsmanship: refined materials, meticulous detailing, and motifs layered with cultural and poetic meaning. These pieces feel less like accessories and more like artefacts — designed to hold memory, emotion, and the “trace” of intimacy.
They even inspired our cherry blossom tree and bloom merchandising in-store this holiday season — a reflection of Seki’s mastery of symbolism, romance, and sensory storytelling.

The Collection
We now proudly welcome the Drift & Bound Paddle, Sakura Whisper Paddle, Blossom Paddle, and the Bell Echo Stick to the Max Black family — each one a testament to Seki’s devotion to beauty, feeling, and ritual.
Brand Story
The creators behind Seki describe these traces as emotional imprints, the marks that passion leaves behind. In their words, “Chase the intense love and leave it as a trace — this is Seki.”
Guided by this philosophy, Seki’s design studio, Yuhen, uses “traces” as the starting point for every piece. Their work captures the tension, emotion, and unspoken language that lives between partners. Each object is designed not only for sensation, but for meaning — blending the five senses with symbolic detail to enrich erotic exploration.
A trace can connect the past to the future.
A mark can become memory, imagination, and anticipation.
