Dyeing and Weaving Crafts MURATA

22 USHIKUBI-TSUMUGI [ Ishikawa ]

Traditional pongee with 850 years of history, made at the foot of Mt. Hakusan in Ishikawa Prefecture

The pongee is called USHIKUBI Tsumugi, since Shiramine in Hakusan City (Ishikawa Prefecture) used to be called Ushikubi Village until around the beginning of the Meiji era. Using silk fibers spun out of double cocoons by hand with traditional methods, the pongee is sturdy, being also called Kuginuki-tsumugi (nail pulling pongee), although its wearability is soft like rinzu (figured satin).

We have been introducing rare handiwork dyeing and weaving crafts that have been handed down in each production area from forefathers’ days and handle original kimonos with the faith of “respecting individuality and creating a one-and-only item.” We also make and sell obis (broad sashes) and original drawstring pouches made with recycled cloths such as antique calico from abroad.
