"Hime-Wagasa"
― Carefully crafted one by one by traditional umbrella artisans ―

Tsujikura’s Hime-Wagasa are miniature Japanese umbrellas made using domestic bamboo and washi paper, following the exact same process as our full-sized umbrellas.
They encapsulate the beauty and techniques passed down through generations within their small form.

Every Hime-Wagasa is finished by hand by artisans, resulting in an exquisite piece with uncompromising attention to detail.
More than just a decoration, this item possesses the authentic presence of a true work of art.
They are highly regarded by customers from all over the world.

Due to their widening shape, Japanese umbrellas have long been considered symbols of good fortune.
Beyond shielding from sun and rain, they are said to "ward off evil," making them special items that mark significant milestones in life.

For this reason, they are frequently chosen as gifts for 80th birthday celebrations (sanju), wedding mementos, or gifts for loved ones.
As a gift imbued with thoughtfulness, they remain in the heart for a long time.

Hime-Wagasa are the perfect size for entryways, tokonoma alcoves, or display shelves.
Simply placing one in a room brings a refined sense of traditional Japanese aesthetic to the space.

For those who value authenticity.
For a gift marking a special milestone.
Please enjoy the Hime-Wagasa, where the craftsmanship of Tsujikura truly breathes.
