Special Selection Tsukiyakko "Dragonfly on the Water's Surface"
Depicted on black Unryu paper is the graceful movement of dragonflies dancing over the water's surface. The black Unryu paper provides a quiet depth as a background, accentuating the splendor of the dragonflies.

Special Selection Tsukiyakko
A traditional Japanese umbrella pattern that has been favored and carried by people with a high aesthetic sense since ancient times.　

With its appearance likening a single Japanese umbrella to a moonlit night, the beauty of the contrast between light and shadow stands out. The "Special Selection Tsukiyakko" is crafted by inheriting the advanced techniques of skilled artisans. Each umbrella is meticulously handmade over time with attention to every detail.

Materials and Craftsmanship
We use handmade Unryu paper that softly diffuses light, allowing you to feel the warmth and lightness inherent in natural materials. Furthermore, we have selected natural materials for the framework and handle, pursuing not only beauty but also durability and ease of use.

Perfect for special gifts or celebrations, this Japanese parasol is an exquisite piece recommended for those who wish to enjoy the harmony between tradition and modernity.

▪ "En - Connection"
It takes many different artisans to create a single Japanese umbrella: those who make the ribs that form the frame, those who make the parts called 'rokuro' (the hub) that connect the ribs, and those who make the washi paper. Finally, Tsujikura's artisans assemble it into a single umbrella. A Japanese umbrella is created through the connections between people, and we pass those connections on to our customers and to the next generation. We named Tsujikura's Japanese parasols "En" (Connection) to embody the meaning of "connecting." We will continue to dedicate ourselves to the production of Japanese umbrellas every day so that "En" may spread connections with everyone around the world.

How to Use the Wagasa
When you walk carrying the closed umbrella, please grasp the head of the Wagasa, or for Janome please grasp the cord on the head, and for Bangasa please hold the leather strings bound around the head.

How to Open the Wagasa
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.
