Black bamboo Japanese parasol pattern dyed “arrow feathers”

"Arrow Feathers/Black and White"
Arrow feathers are an auspicious pattern and have the same meaning as hamaya, in that they ward off evil spirits.
In the process of pasting together the pieces of washi paper that will form the body of the Japanese parasol, the patterns on the washi paper were carefully matched so that the feathers would connect in a straight line.
The result is a modern and stylish Japanese parasol.

・Stencil-dyed washi paper
Among the many dyeing techniques in Japan, this is an ancient tradition that brings together rich patterns and delicate techniques unique to the Japanese. The parts that will not be dyed are coated with a paste to prevent the dye from being dyed, and then each color is applied using a different stencil. The design finally becomes clear when the paste floats off the washi paper in the final process of water.
*Please note that this product cannot be used in rainy weather.

・Stencil dyeing
To highlight its beauty and delicate design
A transparent color is used for the lacquer applied to the surface of the closed umbrella.
The glossy lacquer on the surface shows through
The modern appearance of stencil-dyed washi paper is strikingly beautiful.

How to Use the Wagasa
When you walk carrying the closed umbrella, please grasp the head of the Wagasa, or for Janome please grasp the cord on the head, and for Bangasa please hold the leather strings bound around the head.

How to Open the Wagasa
The Wagasa may be difficult to open due to the waterproof grease on the Washi. Please lightly grasp the bottom of the runner at the bottom inside the umbrella, and slowly and carefully push to the top to open the Wagasa.
