When introducing our company, the first thing we would like to tell you is that Tokunaga Koinobori's founder, Tokunaga Haruho, is a representative Japanese painter from Okayama.
Tokunaga Koinobori's carp streamers are not born from commerce, but from art. They are known for their "beautiful carp streamers" that are made with the utmost care in every step of the process. These sensibilities and values are present in every aspect of Tokunaga Koinobori's "manufacturing."
His master was Ito Shinsui, who is famous for his portraits of beautiful women.
Haruho has shocked the industry with her unprecedented refined, elegant, and gorgeous carp streamers, created using the delicate brushstrokes unique to Japanese painting and a rare worldview.
"Kenjo Hand-dyed Yuzen Koi Kyo Nishiki" is a realistic depiction of the graceful figure of a Nishikigoi carp, painted by the brush of Japanese painter Tokunaga Haruho. The unique hues of Nishikigoi are dyed using a seven-color gradient, and the entire scale is decorated with fan-shaped gold. To make them look more realistic, each carp is dyed with a different pattern - black, red, or blue. The streamers, which have a theme of water and sky, feature a traditional Japanese indigo gradient with auspicious thousand paper cranes scattered across them. The material is a special fabric with a three-dimensional cross weave. This new material shines silver-white when exposed to sunlight.
