Ojiya Ikutsumugi 9-inch Nagoya obi "Shike Kasumi Inkin"

Relying only on the craftsman's sense, he carefully and carefully applies layers of pigments, such as water-gold, mica, and chalk, with a brush, using his free hand so that the characteristics of each pigment are fully utilized.

The pigments overlap on the obi fabric, creating a haze-like pattern.

The unbalance between the wildness of the knots of the obi and the dull shine of the dye gives it a sense of novelty that can only be created by someone with an extraordinary sense of aesthetics.

It looks like a simple subtraction aesthetic, but
This work is extremely precise and delicate, and is expressed with more than enough addition techniques.

〇The coordinating kimono is Kurohachijo Tatsumi Aya.
