Product Feature: Recommended umbrellas for Mother's Day
A Japanese-made umbrella to express your gratitude on Mother's Day
Apr,18,2025
An umbrella that will gently support you on rainy days and sunny days alike. How about giving an umbrella carefully crafted by a craftsman as a Mother's Day gift?
The main product is a rain umbrella, a luxurious Koshu-ori umbrella that can be used in both rain and sun.
We would like to introduce a series of Koshu-ori fabrics that exude a sense of luxury, with the attractive colors that can only be achieved through yarn dyeing. For those who don't usually have the opportunity to carry a stylish umbrella, we would first recommend a Koshu-ori umbrella. Almost all of the folding umbrellas in this series come with two belts, so you can extend the ribs and carry them like a long umbrella. They are luxurious yet easy to use, so they are recommended for those who are using a bi-fold umbrella for the first time.
TwoPly
This is a new standard series of Koshu weaving, with the front and back being different colors like a reversible item. Because it is woven on a narrow shuttle loom, the edges of the fabric become selvedge, enhancing the flat and simple beauty. Both the long and folding umbrellas have attractive handles that combine acrylic and natural wood, and the elegant color variations make it easy to match with any outfit, making it a perfect Mother's Day gift.

Bouquet
This is a series of Koshu weave umbrellas with a plain front and a floral design on the back with a mimosa motif. The floral pattern on the lining is woven using the "loose weave" method, where the warp threads are printed with a temporary weave, and the temporary threads are removed as the final weave is woven, resulting in a subtle shift in the pattern, creating a soft impression. Mimosa has many positive flower meanings and images, such as gratitude, love, and friendship, and is a popular flower as a symbol of happiness, giving it to important people or those who have helped you. This umbrella is recommended as a bouquet that can be used for a long time, and as a gift for someone important.

Double Yang
This is a collaboration product with "Haibara", a long-established Japanese paper store in Nihonbashi. This series expresses "Choyo" (double yang) from the traditional design "Shugyoku Bunko" collection using "hogushiori". The yellow chrysanthemum flower represents "longevity and happiness" in the language of flowers, making it a perfect gift for Mother's Day.

Konomi
The three-colored nut design is expressed using the traditional Yamanashi technique of "Hogushiori," and this umbrella has a soft, watercolor-like feel. All colors blend well with the skin and can be used all year round, making it a great gift for anyone, even though it has a pattern. *The folding umbrellas in this series have only one belt, so they are not 2-way.

Color Drops
This is a series for rain or shine, with a focus on the texture of hand-dyed fabric, and also uses the "loose weave" technique to create a two-color shimmer. The color variations are bright enough to brighten your day just by looking at them, and they can also be used as parasols. We also offer topless folding umbrellas that are easy to open and close, so they are recommended for mothers who are not good at folding umbrellas.

Bloom
This rain or shine series uses flowers and plants trapped in the fabric like pressed flowers, with a subdued sheen and a jacquard weave to create a high-quality feel. The tones of the flowers and plants are consistent with the background, creating a subtle floral design that is perfect for a casual, stylish umbrella. Although it has a luxurious feel, the fabric is lightweight, making it easy to fold and carry around, making it a great gift for mothers who go out a lot.

kata kata leaves
This is a series for both sunny and rainy days, a collaboration between Komiya Shoten and "kata kata," a husband-and-wife unit made up of Takeshi Matsunaga and Tomoe Takai, who create original dyed fabrics using stencil dyeing and chusen dyeing. The texture of the unraveled woven fabric, which is a combination of polyester and cotton, creates a soft and gentle atmosphere. The bag also doubles as an eco bag, so it can be rolled up for storage, and can also be carried with the ribs extended, making it a highly functional folding umbrella. Recommended for fashionable mothers who want to enjoy fashion even in the summer.
