The Crafting Process of a Japanese Umbrella
The making of a traditional Japanese umbrella involves numerous steps—said to number more than one hundred. Artisans carry out each step with care, always keeping not only the task at hand but also the next stage of the process in mind.
This is because the quality of each step directly affects how smoothly the following work can be done. As every process connects to the next, they come together to create a single, beautiful umbrella. Everything is done for the person who will one day hold it in their hands, and for that reason, artisans cannot afford to lose focus for even a moment.
