    Konomi : Series Concept

    A soft, hogushi-ori fabric that produces soft-colored fruit.

    The three coloured nut design is unraveled using a hogushi-ori to create an umbrella with a soft feel like a watercolor painting. When you open the umbrella, you can almost smell the leaves and berries, making it a sure way to add colour to your day. All of the colour variations blend well with the skin and can be used all year round.

    Rain and sun umbrella UV-cut umbrella

    The fabric is water-repellent, water-resistant, and UV-resistant. In addition to being fully functional as an umbrella, this umbrella can also be used as a parasol, making it a versatile umbrella for both rain and shine. The UV protection and shading rates vary slightly depending on the color, but all colors have a UV protection rate of over 95%.

    About the fabric

    "Koshu-ori" is attractive for its lustrous sheen and solid feel

    The fabric used is "Koshu-ori," which is intricately woven in Yamanashi Prefecture, a famous textile production region with a history of over 400 years.
    Koshu-ori is a "pre-dyed" fabric made by weaving extremely fine yarns that have been dyed beforehand into a high density, uniform weave.

    This has resulted in a glossy, deep color and an elegant, heavy texture, and the product still boasts high quality today.
    The weaving technique that uses double yarn (twisted yarn) for the warp and single yarn (one thread) for the weft is characteristic of Yamanashi textiles, resulting in a fabric that combines luxury and durability.

    The production of Koshu-ori fabric begins at a dyer's shop, where the threads are dyed, then goes through a warper, where the threads are arranged into warp threads, before being sewn into fabric at a weaver's shop.
    The fabric is carefully woven over a long period of time, and is then treated to be water-repellent, water-resistant, and UV-resistant, before it can finally be used as an umbrella.
    In this way, the fabric that has been made by many people is then cut and sewn by craftsmen to make into umbrellas.

    Fabric woven on a rare narrow shuttle loom

    Fabric woven on a small-width loom, which has become extremely rare among looms, is made by looming the weft thread with a shuttle and folding it back at the edge as it is woven, which creates selvedge at the edge of the fabric.
    Since there is no need to sew a large piece of fabric to fit the width of the umbrella, there are no perforations, so it looks smart and stylish, and you don't have to worry about fraying even if you use it for a long time.

    Also, because the shuttle loom moves slowly and carefully, making a clanging sound, it takes longer than usual to finally complete a piece of fabric.

    Fruit designs that blend well with the skin and can be used all year round

    This umbrella is suitable for rain or shine and has a cute design of softly loosened nuts and gentle colors. It is a folding umbrella that can be used all year round, and it is comfortable against the skin and adds a colorful touch to your outfit.

    About the handle

    Beautiful grain, natural wood handle

    The handle is made of natural beech wood, which is characterized by its fine grain and soft texture, making it easy to hold, and is carved to match the silhouette of the umbrella and has a natural paint finish.
    It matches well with the included ivory tassel, and grooves are carved into it to prevent the tassel from coming off.

    名入れについて : Only small plates are available

    • Large when unfolded, slim and light when folded

      It's large enough to cover your luggage, yet lightweight, and folds up into a slim umbrella.
      The beautiful silhouette of the umbrella, which is only possible with eight ribs, matches with the luxurious feel of the fabric, creating a stylish look that goes well with any outfit.

    • Rokuro winding and dowel winding

      The part that moves up and down when opening and closing the umbrella is called the "rokuro" and the joint part of the bone is called the "dabo."
      The process of protecting each of these parts with the umbrella fabric is called "rokuromaki" and "dabomaki," and each part is carefully attached and covered to protect your hands when opening the umbrella and to prevent damage to the ribs, while also creating a traditional beauty and sense of luxury.
      This is an old-fashioned technique that is time-consuming and therefore not seen much these days, but all of Komiya Shoten's long umbrellas are equipped with it.

    • Ribs and center pole

      The ribs are made of the lightest and hardest carbon fiber material. It is a very light material, yet extremely strong and wind resistant. It is also a rust-free material, making it easy to maintain on a daily basis.
      The center rod is made of aluminum.
      It is a very lightweight material that does not rust and is therefore easy to maintain.
