Made with high-quality jacquard weaving, it expresses a delicate and beautifully contrasting "paper-cut"-like aesthetic. Another distinctive feature is that the colors are reversed on the front and back sides. Depending on the viewing angle and lighting, you can appreciate the rich luster, texture, and pattern of the umbrella fabric. [Concept of the "Sarasa" design in the Kirie series] The appeal lies in the graphical details. • Impactful design The delicate nature and beautiful contrast of paper cutting are expressed using glossy warp and weft threads. The large woven design adds impact and a sense of energy when you hold the umbrella. ・Glossy and textured sycamore weave This weaving technique, also known as satin weave, uses a combination of warp and weft threads to create a pattern with a clear contrast. One-push open We used a frame that opens with a single push, making it easy to open the umbrella even when you have a lot of luggage. - A weight that doesn't cause stress Both the frame and the central shaft are made of aluminum, resulting in a lightweight design. (Weight: approximately 360g) • High-quality handle and ferrule The handle and tip are made of Japanese bamboo. Bamboo, a familiar plant to the Japanese people, has a calming effect on the mind. And of course, it's made in Japan with meticulous stitching and reliable quality! It has also passed inspections by the Japan Umbrella Promotion Association (JUPA), so there are no quality issues, and you can rest assured about after-sales service. It makes a great gift.
