Jet-Black and Red/ High Quality Wakasane

This is a reproduction of the classic “Kousa” pattern of the specially selected “Wakasane” Janome umbrella.
It is completed by the advanced and delicate tensioning technique of Wagasa craftsmen.
The contrast between the dyed bamboo and handmade Washi, which can be seen from the inside of the Wagasa, accentuates its beauty.
It has become a gem not only for rainy days, but also for interior decoration like a painting.
"Jet-Black and Red”
The combination of jet-black and red emphasizes the contrast between silence and passion, darkness and light, and the beauty created by the contrast is beyond words.
The beautiful tailoring of this product is outstanding.
