The true beauty of May decorations: "Kyoto Nishiki Kabuto"
The back part is made of "Kyoto Nishiki", a material made using hand-dyed printing techniques. Unrivaled value and design
The fukiage is the front of the helmet and, along with the kuwagata crest, is the most eye-catching part. This product uses the same pattern fabric as the popular Tabletop Carp Streamer Kyo Nishiki, which comes in a compact size that makes the celebration of Tango no Sekku feel more familiar.
The delicate patterns are reproduced in detail through a mold burned into the silk screen. Unlike regular carp streamers, the mesh of the screen is easily clogged in small works, and even the slightest deviation is not allowed. The smallest carp streamers require time and skilled craftsmanship. We bring together the tradition of hand-printing and the techniques of our artisans to bring you "Kyo Nishiki," a harmonious blend of beauty and delicacy.
The "kazari" helmet decorations displayed during the Boys' Festival were originally meant to represent wishes for a brave life in battle, but for a military commander, the helmet was an important piece of equipment for personal protection. Since helmets are also a form of protective gear, they are displayed as a kind of talisman to protect one's children, making them popular among families who care for their children. Carp streamers also represent the hope that children will overcome obstacles like carp in the flow of life, and grow into strong people who can persevere even in the face of adversity. However, since it can be difficult to display large carp streamers in a garden, in recent years there has been a growing demand for people to display carp streamers indoors as well, which has led to the popularity of compact-sized carp streamer decorations.
The set of Kyonishiki Kabuto and Kyonishiki Tabletop Carp Streamer, which combines the meaning of both a helmet ornament and a carp streamer, will be a unique and special gift, perfect for celebrating the first Doll Festival.
