What is Iga Kumihimo?

Do you know the movie named "Your Name"?
The hair tie that the main character used to tie her hair is a Kumihimo.

Iga kumihimo

Iga kumihimo, a traditional highland product from Japan, is made by assembling raw silk and other threads into delicate strings on a traditional kumidai.

In recent years, sales of traditional Japanese crafts have been declining and there are no successors. So, the survival of these crafts is in doubt. This situation is not limited to Iga Kumihimo, but is spreading throughout the traditional craft industry.

We'd like to enrich Japanese traditional craftsmen, spread Japanese traditional crafts to the world, and preserve Japanese traditional crafts for the future.

We will deliver traditional Japanese crafts to many people in the world.
