Collection: Nishijin ultra-fine woven Brocade

For over a millennium, Nishijin weaving has been dedicated to crafting opulent attire for imperial and aristocratic elites, prioritizing beauty above all else, regardless of the time and resources required. This venerable tradition has continuously evolved to relentlessly pursue excellence and creativity.

One of the roles of Nishijin-ori as a traditional craft is to convey Kyoto's aesthetic consciousness, which it has absorbed over its long history, using the finest techniques available today. Paradoxically, what supports this is an insatiable desire to explore unknown worlds and advance technology—such as interpreting Western paintings through Nishijin textiles or adopting the latest innovations. While continuing to produce Maru-Obi with traditional Japanese motifs, Nishijin-ori also incorporates designs and color sensibilities from other cultures. An openness to other cultures and a forward-looking mindset are what truly preserve tradition.

Our collection encompasses a diverse array of works, from the most exquisite Maru-obi to accessible interior items. We invite you to explore our offerings.
