Kimono Umbrella __ Kishoku

Part of the Kimono Umbrella collection, this Kimono Sun Umbrella design is Kishoku, the colour of joy. Crafted & upcycled from a traditional, antique Kimono that has been passed down through generations.

The Kishoku parasol is made from a Japanese Tomesode, which is a special kind of Kimono worn only for celebratory occasions with close relatives. This translucent Sha-Woven silk fabric is manufactured using the Karamiori weave which creates a stiff but firm feel. The fabric is masterfully embroidered with beautiful seasonal flowers. After that, it’s decorated with eloquently delicate patterns which are created with Sumi ink.

The Sha-Woven silk is the ideal fabric for those cooler summer evenings.

Kimono Collection: Sun parasols made from fabric cut from antique Kimono. The Kimono is a Japanese traditional formal costume, but due to fashion culture & trends changing, people don’t wear kimonos as often as they used to, so they have been upcycled & hand-crafted into a beautiful umbrella.
