+d (Ash Concept) "Animal Rubber Band," cute and colorful animal-shaped rubber bands, 24 pieces per pack, perfect for small gifts. - Type: Animal Rubber Band - Colors: Pink, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue - Quantity: 24 pieces - Package: Transparent gift box - Design: Animal-shaped Thank you for viewing. The following is an explanation from the HP. These animal-shaped rubber bands are made of a magical, cute silicone that returns to its original shape even after use. Do you often find that rubber bands disappear without a trace, or are discarded as soon as they're no longer needed? We designed these to be more endearing than disposable, convenient rubber bands. They're sure to be appreciated as small gifts or when returning borrowed books or CDs. Of course, they're also fun to use for wrapping your child's lunch or keeping on your office desk. Made of safe silicone, also used in baby bottle nipples, they are heat-resistant (up to 190°C) and cold-resistant (down to -40°C), so they can withstand the freezer and hot water baths. They are also light-resistant, so they won't deteriorate like regular rubber bands even after long use. The Animal Rubber Band was first unveiled in the summer of 2002 at "NYGF/accent on design" in New York, and the first order was from the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. After being released in Japan, they were then presented at major exhibitions around the world, including "100% Design" in London, "Ambiente" in Frankfurt, and "Maison & Objet" in Paris.
