Patterns
"Rikyu" Brocade
The original cloth which was one of the favorites of Rikyu, a great tea master, is a brocade with plum blossom motifs in yellowish brown which softly melt into a light blue background. This design is a superb one to represent plumblossoms with five dots in yellowish brown and a lineal construction to combine these dots. In view of its wide use today, we introduced a slight change to the texture of the original fabric.
For a color scheme we learnt the way of making and sense of the original, and tried to represent plum-blossoms in various background colors and by the shades which harmonize with these colors.
Koge Zuikin(Brocade with the Design of a Red-dyed Ivory Ruler)
The design of this brocade is adapted from one of the Shoso-in treasures known as the "Koge Bachiru Shaku" meaning a red-dyed and carved ivory ruler. It is an ornamental measure corresponding in length to a regular "shaku" or about 12 inches. After the ivory has been dyed red, its design is carved by means of a carving technique called "hane-hori" or "bachiru", and then tinged with yellow and green to make it colorful. Its full length is divided by lines and a divided part is equivalent to a "sun" or about 1.19 inch. Each part represents a "bird and animal" pattern and a "plant and floral" pattern, and on the back, without dividing lines, are represented patterns which were popular at that time.
We reproduced these patterns with a weaving technique of a warp-patterned brocade with the addition of an exquisite color scheme.
Tempyō Mokuga Sō-ka-kin(Brocade with Floral Design of Tempyō Art in Inlaid Style)
Among the Shōsō-in Treasures, there remain fine arts not only brought from the continent but also made by domestic artisans in the Nara period(710-784 A.D.) who had presumably been affected by the culture of the Tang Dynasty China (618-907 A.D.) and further the West. This design is modeled after a pattern inlaid in the biwa lute made of red sandalwood, having been kept in the Shōsō-in Repository, composed of four-petalled flowers, six-petalled flowers, and small six-petalled flowers placed one after the other.
The warp-patterned brocade is woven in our technique leaving the sentiments of the inlaid work recalling the ethos of the Tempyō art in the Nara period.
