Special Selection Bangasa: Tsukiyakko "Ainozuki"

■Special Selection Bangasa: Tsukiyakko
"Tsukiyakko" is a traditional bangasa (coarse paper umbrella) featuring a crescent moon pattern, long favored by those with a refined aesthetic sense. The appearance of this Japanese umbrella, likened to a moonlit night, highlights the beauty of contrast between light and dark. It is a Tsujikura Special Selection Bangasa that combines the delicate craftsmanship of our artisans with the robust strength of a bangasa.

■ Ainotsuki (Indigo Moon)

A single umbrella featuring a deep, clear indigo moon floating quietly on natural-colored Japanese paper.

"Ainotsuki" is a name that evokes the image of the moon floating in the stillness of night. The deep indigo, a traditional Japanese color, imparts a sense of dignified composure and profound beauty.

The soft brightness of the natural paper and the quiet hue of the deep indigo resonate beautifully, creating a presence that is both understated and exceptionally refined.

The grand curves unique to the Tsukiyakko design create a scene like the moon floating in the night sky, adding tranquility and elegance to any Japanese-style space.

This is the Tsujikura Special Selection Bangasa Tsukiyakko "Ainotsuki," possessing both dignified grace and the depth unique to traditional Japanese colors.
