KENZO MAKINO

"I want people to feel the changes of the four seasons in Japan through my dyed works"

With this in mind, I create small works of art in addition to kimonos to convey the beauty of Kaga silk dyeing, which has a history of 500 years. The shades of color and the thickness and fineness of the lines convey the small gestures of nature in our daily lives.

KAGA YUZEN / KAGA SILK DYEING

About 500 years ago / 1500s / Muromachi–Sengoku Period

Kaga Yuzen grew from older plain-dyeing traditions in the Kaga region, with patterned dyeing developing during the seventeenth century. In the early eighteenth century, designs associated with Kyoto fan painter Miyazaki Yuzensai and paste-resist techniques influenced Kanazawa, where the craft matured into a highly naturalistic local style.

In Japan, Kaga Yuzen is regarded as a formal kimono tradition with restrained elegance. Its palette is often associated with the “Kaga Five Colors”—deep red, indigo, ochre, green and ancient purple—and its motifs are observed from nature with painterly care. Today the technique also appears on scarves and smaller accessories.

One particularly fascinating detail is the deliberate depiction of insect bites or withered areas on leaves. Rather than presenting flawless flowers, artisans may show nature aging and changing. Within luxurious decoration, imperfection becomes a sign of realism and life itself.

Différences individuelles

Chaque pièce étant fabriquée à la main individuellement, de légères variations de couleur, de motif, de forme et de texture peuvent survenir. Ces subtiles différences sont une caractéristique naturelle des créations artisanales, rendant chaque pièce véritablement unique. Nous espérons que vous apprécierez ces variations individuelles comme faisant partie de la beauté et du caractère de l'artisanat japonais.
