Japanese umbrellas Honshiki Nodate gasa set




Do you know "chamise"?
It is Japanese old teahouse on street.
If you had some chance to visit Kyoto, for example, you could see "chamise" at Kinkaku temple.
People eat dumpling "dango" and drink tea at "chamise" with great view.
It is a culture of traveler " -旅人- TABIBITO ".
They often rest at there and talk with others.

This culture is Japanese originality.
Everyone shares same space and talk.
Time goes so slowly.

I like it.

Please visit teahouse when you will come to Japan.


You need them to make "chamise" situation.

Chair and Nodategasa which is big umbrella.

The Nodategasa is handmade.
Its construction is very delicate and beautiful.
