Seigen (Deep Blue & Black) / Special Selection Tsukiyakko / Black Bamboo Parasol

■ "Tsukiyakko" (Crescent Moon Japanese Sun Parasol)
Cherished since ancient times by those with a refined aesthetic sensibility, the "Tsukiyakko" is a traditional Japanese sun parasol featuring an iconic crescent moon motif.
Envisioning a tranquil moonlit night across a single canopy, the striking contrast of light and shadow creates a dignified, poetic presence. Highlighting the meticulous handcraft of master artisans, the handle is shaped from natural black bamboo (kurochiku)—yielding a smooth, organic grip that rests comfortably in your hand.
Inside the canopy, delicate decorative threads harmonize with the parasol’s colors, captivating the heart both from the outside and within.

■ "Seigen" (Deep Blue & Profound Black)
A name signifying deep, boundless blue and quiet, immeasurable depth (Gen).
The gentle cloud-like fibers of the handmade Unryu washi impart a soft, luminous texture, infusing a profound sense of calm composure and timeless nobility.
Under natural sunlight, the translucent blue canopy harmonizes gracefully with the bold black crescent moon, presenting an exquisite balance of quiet serenity and artistic depth.
