 Product History

When did these crafts start to craft?:800 years ago / 1200AD / Kamakura period in Japan

During the Heian period (794-1185), bamboo was widely used for building materials, weapons for hunting, and tools for farming and fishing. In the Edo period (1603-1868), bamboo craftsmen worked hard to deliver their works to the shoguns (Conqueror of Japan). Later, craftsmen who made vases for flower arrangement and ladles for the tea ceremony came to live in Kyoto, and the bamboo crafts in Kyoto flourished.


Craftsman Story

Craftsman Profile

Nishikawa
Founded in Kyoto in 1831. The company has been in business for 193 years.
During the second generation, the company devised and popularized the "go-noren" (bamboo blind), which had been used only by the imperial court and warrior class, so that it could be used by the general public.
Bamboo crafts in Kyoto, which until then consisted mostly of daily utensils such as colanders, were introduced to the culture of the tea ceremony and flower arrangement, and together with "SUDARE," laid the foundation for the present Kyoto bamboo crafts.
