"The guardians of kasuri, weaving history through time," this is the beauty of traditional tsumugi that continues from the past to the present, a single-layered Ushikubi tsumugi... an item with a certification tag. Ushikubi tsumugi has a unique texture that combines both tsumugi and silk weaving, beautiful and strong, comfortable against the skin, and a traditional craft characterized by its rustic elegance and simple folk art flavor. It originates from the place name of Ushikubi Village (present-day Shiramine Village, Ishikawa Prefecture) in the Hakusan foothills, where it is produced. It is characterized by being woven using thick, knotted tama-ito (silk yarn) spun from the tama-mayu (double cocoons) made by two silkworms. The light green-gray ground, the somewhat mature expression, the abstract flowing patterns drawn with skillful composition, and the expression created by the single-layered texture are the very essence of "the charm of traditional tsumugi that is in vogue today"! The refreshing feeling of kasuri and the natural flavor created by the unique knots are unique to Ushikubi tsumugi, and are magnificent. A brand new, unused piece, only worn for photography, with "basting threads attached / hand-sewn tailoring," it is a high-quality tailoring with a koshiki-ate (seat lining) that reduces the wrinkling unique to thin kimonos when sitting and prevents the undergarments from showing through. This kimono incorporates a highly designed creative pattern with a classic modern focus in light grayish tones. The depth of the Japanese aesthetic created by the skillful color scheme and elegant design, adding a subtle allure to dress as an adult, is wonderful. "From today, you too will be a guardian of kasuri, connecting history for each person," with a guarantee of reliable quality... captivated by traditional tsumugi, "the joy of wearing it while feeling history," the light and supple hem movement and the sense of luxury created by its appearance are exceptional, Ushikubi tsumugi delivers superior quality and the ultimate comfort.
