"Hime Wagasa"
— Carefully crafted one by one by Japanese umbrella artisans —

Tsujikura's Hime Wagasa are miniature umbrellas made using Japanese bamboo and washi paper, following the same construction process as full-sized umbrellas.
They capture the inherited techniques and beauty in a compact form.

Every Hime Wagasa is finished by hand, with an exquisite attention to detail that makes no compromises.
More than just an ornament, each piece possesses the presence of a "genuine" article.
They have also earned high praise from customers overseas.

With their widening shape, Japanese umbrellas have long been considered lucky charms.
Beyond shielding from sun and rain, they carry the meaning of "warding off evil," making them special items that grace life's milestones.

For this reason, they are chosen as gifts for 80th birthday celebrations (sanju), wedding mementos, and presents for loved ones.
As a gift imbued with heartfelt sentiment, they leave a lasting impression.

Hime Wagasa are sized perfectly for entryways, tokonoma alcoves, or display shelves.
Simply placing one in a space brings a refined Japanese atmosphere.

For those who cherish the authentic.
For a special milestone gift.
Please enjoy having the craftsmanship of Tsujikura in your own hands.

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.
