Zui-ka Karakusa-mon Nishiki(Kasuga-ōchō Brocade with Auspicious Flowers and Arabesques Design)
Design of this brocade is modeled after a pattern of brocade, consisting of small auspicious flowers and arabesques beautifully arranged, pasted on "Ya-kubari-kusi-ita" (partition part of a quiver) of "Hira-yana-gui" (a flat quiver), which was recorded to have been made in 1131 and dedicated to Wakamiya Jinja, a subordinate shrine of Kasuga Taisha, when it was founded in 1135. Thus, the original brocade is valuable as the date of its production is accurate. "Ya-kubari-kusi-ita" was placed in "Hōdate" (mullion box of a flat quiver) of "Hira-yana-gui" to separately contain the arrows.
The original brocade was made in bluish yellow and light indigo colors, but we have used our original color and woven into warp-patterned brocade with our exquisite technique.
