A combination of three auspicious patterns handed down since ancient times.

We suggest this as a wonderful gift for any occasion.

[Pattern: Asanoha]

  

 


It is a traditional Japanese pattern, a continuous hexagonal pattern that geometrically represents the shape of hemp leaves. The continuous pattern is said to have meanings such as longevity, eternity, and immortality.

Hemp has been an indispensable plant in Shinto rituals since ancient times, and was used for the shimenawa (sacred ropes) and nusa (offerings) used in front of shrines, and was considered a sacred fiber in which gods reside. The hemp leaf pattern is also a familiar motif in Japan since ancient times, used on clothing and tools as a symbol of divine protection .



1. A symbol of growth and health

Asanoha is a plant that grows quickly and straight. For this reason, it is a popular pattern for baby clothes, swaddling clothes, and celebratory clothes, with the hope that the child will grow up healthy and strong.

2. The power of talismans

Hemp has been considered a sacred plant since ancient times, and was believed to have the power to ward off evil spirits . Its regular, sharp-angled geometric patterns were also believed to have the power to ward off evil , and it was used on baby clothes and as amulets.

3. Auspicious patterns

The well-balanced and beautiful pattern is said to represent prosperity, abundance, and safety in the home , so it can be displayed anywhere.

The meaning and wishes of the hemp leaf pattern

🌿 Straight growth🌿 Healthy vitality🌿 Protection from evil and misfortune🌿 Pure mind and body

This pattern has been used especially on baby clothes, swaddling clothes, and undergarments.
It contains a parent's deepest prayer that their child will grow up healthy and strong.

It is a pattern of prayer that gently supports the strength of life and watches over its growth .

In addition to being a gift for babies, the hemp leaf is also perfect as a farewell gift for those who are leaving or as a message of encouragement for older people to "still grow." The hemp leaf is a gentle and powerful form of prayer that illuminates every moment of life .


<Recommended celebratory occasions>
This pattern has the meanings of "healthy growth" and "warding off evil," so it is especially recommended for gifts for baby showers, festivals, and other celebrations and birthdays for children.
It is also a suitable pattern for gifts for weddings and other important milestones in life.

-- Japanese colors that protect life and bring blessings --

Red is one of the most powerful and special colors in Japan: it represents the light of the sun, the warmth of fire, and the warmth of blood.

Important points to note about Kurashiki Temari

  

Kurashiki Temari are carefully crafted one by one by hand. There are slight differences in the texture of the material, the way the threads are stretched, and the way the patterns appear, so each one has its own unique character. We hope you will enjoy them after reading and understanding the following points.
●Since each item is made by hand, there may be slight individual differences in color, pattern, and shape.
●When using natural materials or plant-dyed threads, the color may change over time. Please enjoy this as part of the texture.
●Please be careful when handling this product as it is sensitive to strong force, impact, and water.
●Storing in direct sunlight for long periods of time may cause fading. Please enjoy in a place that is out of the sun as much as possible. Temari are attractive for their warmth that can only be achieved through handicrafts, and the expressions that can be found in their small differences. We hope you will enjoy the expressions that each "Temari" has.


Folk crafts nurtured in Kurashiki, a city of culture

Kurashiki Temari was born from the fascination with the traditional Kumamoto craft "Higo Mari". Higo Mari is a gorgeous handball that requires advanced techniques to draw intricate geometric patterns with colorful threads. Kurashiki Temari was created when the creator was moved by its beauty and sublimated it into a simple and gentle expression that suits the land of Kurashiki.


The charm of Kurashiki Temari lies in its quiet appearance and simple, warm texture.

Kurashiki is known as a "city of beauty" with art museums and craft galleries scattered throughout the city. This cultural soil has supported the handicraft of Kurashiki Temari, which has been nurtured slowly and carefully.




"Kurashiki Temari" is carefully crafted one by one by hand

 

Kurashiki Temari are carefully crafted one by one by hand.



 


First, traditional rice husks are used for the core. These are wrapped in paper and shaped into a ball. To stabilize the core, thread is wrapped around it several times to give it roundness and elasticity.


In order to pursue the "Kurashiki Temari" style, we use cotton thread that we dyed ourselves.
