❖Characteristics of [Good Omen]❖

Painted by Japanese painter Haruho Tokunaga,
A masterpiece of the highest quality, carefully crafted by skilled craftsmen

The silk-like jacquard-woven material is woven with the noble paulownia, bamboo, phoenix and kirin motifs favored by aristocrats throughout history. It is dyed using the traditional hand-dyed Yuzen gradation technique and sprinkled with gold glitter to create a more luxurious and gorgeous finish. The streamers are in five traditional colors based on the auspicious wavy undulation pattern. In the center, a winged flying dragon, the highest rank, is depicted to make the dragon in the legend of the Dragon Gate soar even higher.

The thread, weaving, dyeing, sewing, and swimming of these carp streamers are all of the highest quality.

Polyester jacquard fabric is made using more than double the number of threads compared to regular jacquard woven fabrics. This makes it strong and allows the fabric to flutter more gently. It is appreciated for its silk-like touch, and the way it swims is truly a work of art. The paulownia, bamboo, and phoenix, woven with sunlight, shine gently with openwork, and swim softly and gracefully. Although it has a small amount of gold leaf, it is as elegant as a Nishikigoi carp swimming gracefully, shaking off the spray. The five-colored streamers are colorful and have ivy drawn on their legs, creating a flying dragon that dances. The ivy has the meaning of pushing up to higher heights.

Flying dragon streamer

(Hiryuu - Fukinagashi)

The streamers are in the traditional five colors and are based on auspicious rippling wave patterns.
In the center, we have depicted a winged flying dragon of the highest rank, to give the dragon in the legend of the Dragon Gate even greater soaring.

Beautiful carp streamers made from Japanese paintings

　

Founder of Tokunaga Koinobori,
Tokunaga Haruho is a representative Japanese painter from Okayama.

Learning from the famous bijin-ga (portraits of beautiful women) artist Ito Shinsui, Haruho shocked the art world with her unprecedented refined and elegant carp streamers, painted with the delicate brushwork characteristic of Japanese painting and a unique worldview.

Carp streamers, created as a result of art, are said to be characterized by their beautiful craftsmanship, with every single step being carefully crafted.
Tokunaga Koinobori's sensibilities and values are present in every aspect of their "manufacturing."
His representative works include "Celebratory Carp: Auspicious Sign" and "Presented Hand-dyed Yuzen Carp: Kyonishiki."

2021 Korakuen

Korakuen in Okayama is one of the three great gardens in Japan. Auspicious symbols were displayed in the pond in the center of the garden.
Visitors enjoyed watching the carp streamers swimming comfortably.

Fabric that feels like real silk

　

More beautiful and soft than any carp streamer.
Yet durable original jacquard fabric

Regular jacquard weaving generally has 190 threads. A higher density version has 210 threads. These two types are said to be the most common.
However, Kitcho is specially constructed with an even higher density of 318 threads, embodying the lustrous texture and softness of silk.
The paulownia, bamboo, and phoenix motifs are woven in multiple layers, and the thin, delicate threads are layered together to create a top-quality jacquard weave that is both soft and durable.

"Auspicious Signs" and Patterns

Kitcho is made with wishes for good fortune in mind, down to the smallest details such as the fabric and design.

　

❖Fabric woven with [Paulownia, Bamboo, Phoenix and Kirin] pattern❖

A tradition from China. [It is said that when the heavens are worshiped, the auspicious bird, the phoenix, descends, lives in the paulownia tree, and eats the fruit of the bamboo, so the pattern that combines these three is called the paulownia, bamboo, and phoenix pattern. It is also used on the robes worn by the emperor, and is one of the noble and courtly patterns. It also incorporates a pattern that incorporates a kirin, making it a highly elegant pattern. Kitcho has woven these into the fabric.

❖Hand-printed [Chrysanthemum] pattern❖

The chrysanthemum is imbued with the meanings of good fortune, such as "nobility," "mental and physical stability," and "warding off evil spirits," and the chrysanthemum crest has been loved since ancient times as an auspicious motif. Chrysanthemum patterns have been used on many mirrors, armor, kimonos, and other items since ancient times, and this originates from its use as an auspicious motif that embodies the wish for eternal youth and longevity, which comes from the legend of the chrysanthemum water.

Hand-printing techniques by artisans

The daily changes in temperature and humidity have a big impact on the final color. With a sense cultivated over many years, the dye mixture is adjusted, taking into consideration the daily changes in temperature and humidity. To create colorful carp streamers, several different colors and molds are used to dye them with a rich texture.

Water-repellent treatment finish

Using water-repellent treated fabric, it repels water better than conventional products, is less likely to shrink or wrinkle, and is more resistant to rain.
In addition, the coating effect reduces fading, resulting in a vivid and durable finish.

Soyokaze Line

Relaxed and bright, the Gentle Breeze Line
We hope that the beautifully dyed carp streamers will swim gracefully in the refreshing breeze.
With this wish in mind, our skilled craftsmen cut the fabric.

Using water-repellent treated fabric, it repels water better than conventional products, is less likely to shrink or wrinkle, and is more resistant to rain.
In addition, the coating effect reduces fading, resulting in a vivid and durable finish.

The final process of making carp streamers is "sewing," which requires three different types of sewing machines to sew each beautiful line with meticulous skill. The careful finish is so well-established that it is said to be a true work of art.

The finest carp streamers, passed down from hand to hand with the passion of artisans

In the fresh wind of May,
Enjoy your celebration at Kitcho.
