The world of an umbrella craftsman's craft - Production of Koshu-ori "kasane"

#japanese #Umbrella #Craftsman #Handmade #umbrellacraft #craftsmanship Heartwarming and Beautiful A handmade umbrella that connects feelings Komiya Shoten has been making umbrellas as a part of fashion since its establishment in 1930, We continue to make umbrellas today with the hope that you will use them for many years to come as a part of fashion. "Put all our heart into one umbrella" Komiya Shoten's umbrellas are made by a single craftsman who carries out many of the processes involved in umbrella production. The process begins with the creation of a wooden mold, and the tension of the fabric and the sewing method are adjusted as if in dialogue to create a single umbrella. The dignified shape, the sound of the handle when opened, the feel of the hand, the sound of the rain on it, and the beautiful shape. The "quality of workmanship" and "comfort" that can be felt because we put our heart into each and every one of our umbrellas. We hope that when you open the umbrella, your feelings will be connected to the user. "Work that will be handed down from generation to generation" "Rokuro-maki" covers the runner with fabric to prevent hand injury when opening the umbrella. "Dabo-maki" protects the dowel, the part of the ribs that touches the fabric, with fabric. The "band" is sewn by hand to prevent the fabric from being damaged. "Jinchasa" capped for even greater waterproofing accuracy. Umbrella "tension" for form beauty. From master to apprentice, the apprentice becomes the master, and then the master to the apprentice. We will continue to pass on to the next generation the skills and ideas that have been handed down since our founding in 1930. Umbrella product "Kasane" https://www.komiyakasa.jp/komiyashote...
