Japanese Umbrella

Japanese umbrellas and bangasa umbrellas are umbrellas made with a bamboo frame covered in Japanese paper to make them waterproof.

It was introduced as an import from China, but the ones at that time were called tengai (canopies) that could not be opened or closed.
Later, through the passage of time and through Japan's unique techniques, by the Muromachi period they had taken on the form of Japanese umbrellas and bangasa umbrellas that are still used for the same purposes today.
During the Edo period, they began to spread all over the country and were used for advertising purposes, with store names written on them.

Although the number of craftsmen has decreased, they are still used by maiko and geisha in Kyoto. They are also used as interior decorations and for welcoming and welcoming guests in inns and restaurants, and an increasing number of young customers are visiting stores who are interested in the appearance of Japanese umbrellas made of bamboo and washi paper.

How about spending some time on a rainy day feeling a little bit like being seen by others, while being soothed by the soothing sound of raindrops falling on a Japanese umbrella?
