Asanoha(Yellow) / Mini Wagasa

The meaning of the hemp leaf pattern.
Hemp leaves grow so fast that they can reach 4 meters in 4 months, and they grow straight and fast, so the hemp leaf pattern represents the wish for the healthy growth of the child. This pattern also has the meaning of repelling evil, and has been widely used as a pattern for maternity clothes since ancient times. Please use it as a memento to wish for the healthy growth of your child or grandchild.

Wagasa are handcrafted one by one by Wagasa craftsmen.
As with Wagasa, Tsujikura also produces miniature sized Mini Wagasa using Japan-made materials.

Excellent reviews have been received from overseas purchasers who are highly attracted to these Wagasa because they are “Handcrafted” by “Skilled Craftsmen” and “Made in Japan.”

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.
