Yamabuki(Yellow) / KIWAMI
“Yamabuki” is a colorful parasol with a bright yellowish color like the flower of Yamabuki.
The black of the eaves color tightens the impression.
Unlike ordinary Japanese paper, the grass-dyed washi has a transparency and a unique texture.
The beauty of the transparency of the finished parasol is fascinating.
Tsujikura’s original gem is made of handmade Japanese paper from Ecchu. The main material is Kozo (paper mulberry), a strong fiber, which is handmade and dyed with herbs and trees. The beautiful Wabi color, texture of handmade Japanese paper, and fine, neat finish by skilled craftsmen. The result is “Kiwami,” a luxurious and exquisite product. In the case of the parasol, it has become a beautifully colored parasol that has never been seen before.
This umbrella is made with Washi paper. It is slim and light, the most simple style and easy to use. It is recommended for the first Wagasa. Maiko and Geiko in Kyoto are actually using this type of Wagasa.
