Cloisonne enamel ware is called \"Shippo\" in Japanese word (it means seven treasure) which are named because they were as beautiful as the treasures in the Buddhist scriptures. During the Edo period (1603-1868), cloisonne enamel ware was mainly used to decorate sword fittings, shrines and temples, and nail covers used on castles. Later, modern cloisonne enamel ware began to be used, especially for flat objects such as accessories and school emblems. In fact, cloisonne enamel is also used in our daily lives, for example, in the emblems of sports cars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\" data-mce-style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCraftsman Story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCraftsman Profile\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\" data-mce-style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003eYoshiro Kato \/ Kato Cloisonne Studio\u003cbr\u003eA craftsman who has been making Owari cloisonne enamel ware in Aichi Prefecture since 1947.

While mechanization has spread to other production centers as time has progressed, Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware is that they are still made by hand. One of the characteristics of Kyoy-ware and Kiyomizu-ware is that many avant-garde artists have emerged, creating a variety of works that cannot be lumped together.

In Hinduism, it was used by counting the number of times they prayed using prayer beads, and that this custom was introduced into Buddhism by Buddha. It is said that the practice was introduced to Japan with Buddhism in AD 552. A Buddhist prayer bead basically consists of 108 beads, which represent 108 earthly temptations (Bonnō). The prayer beads are meant to dispel these 108 afflictions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e・Prayer Beads used to be very expensive.\u003cbr\u003eAccording to a book written in 756, prayer beads were once so valuable that they were recognized as \"national treasures\".\u003cbr\u003eTherefore, beads at that time were not a commodity that everyone could have, but a rare item used only by a few monks and aristocrats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e・Popularization of prayer beads\u003cbr\u003eIn the late Heian period (794-1185) and the Kamakura period (1192-1333), with the spread of Buddhism, the prayer beads became popular among the general public. Unlike Buddhism in the past, which was strongly recognized as something for the state and the aristocracy, the purpose of Buddhist prayer beads from the Kamakura period was to help the general public. In the Edo period (1603-1867), the general public began to buy and sell Buddhist prayer beads. When Buddhism was recognized as the state religion, the demand for prayer beads increased significantly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are the most basic amulets to pray for happiness and to protect the living self, and each bead is thought to contain a \"sutra\".

The village has long flourished as a paper-making village, with almost all villagers involved in paper making.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaper making, which began as a small business to be passed on to descendants, achieved great development during the Edo period. \u003cbr\u003eMany measures were taken to encourage paper production, and because of its proximity to the capital of Kyoto, many types of paper were produced, including price tags and shibu-gami related to Kyoto kimono, as well as umbrella paper, shoji paper, and fusuma-gami (sliding door frame) paper. \u003cbr\u003eIn 1895, the paper-making technology of Tosa (other region in Japan) was adopted, and the production of large-size paper and thick paper also became possible, which led to an increase in production volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\" data-mce-style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCraftsman Story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCraftsman Profile\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\" data-mce-style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003eKurotani Washi\u003cbr\u003eKurotani Washi preserves the traditions and techniques of papermaking that have been handed down over 800 years in the Kurotani region.
