A homage design to feel the summer sea
A symbolic landscape with the silhouette of a railroad crossing quietly placed against the backdrop of the expansive sky and sparkling blue sea.
The design is full of charm and gives you the feeling of being on a summer beach.
The depth and blurred gradation of the sea, expressed through double dyeing, seems to reflect the fluctuations of the water surface. It makes you feel cool and cool every time you look at it.
The supple fabric quickly absorbs sweat and moisture, making it perfect for summer kitchens and wiping sweat. If you hang it on the wall, you can create a "summer landscape" by the window or under the candles.
Experience summer by looking at it, touching it with your hands, and using it as an everyday fabric.
Traditional Japanese dyeing technique “chusen”
Chusen is a unique Japanese dyeing technique that has been around since the Meiji period.
It is characterized by creating a pattern using paper patterns and pouring the dye onto the layers of fabric, which allows the fabric to be dyed beautifully even to the core.
By pouring the dye from above, natural shading and blurring are created, creating a warm look that cannot be achieved with a machine.
It is unique to Chusen that you can enjoy beautiful colors no matter where you look because there are no front or back sides. The more you use it, the more its texture will increase, and over time you will develop your own unique taste.
