Serujūku-no-Uma(Seijuk Horse)
Turkey, the crossroads of East-West civilization, has spun a lot of histories and cultures from thr ancient Greece to the Ottoman Empire, so that foreigners have friendly feeling and subtle charm to her.
The design of this brocade is modeled after the pictures drawn on the tiles excavated in Turkey, used to decorate the majestic palace of the Seljuk Empire. The tiles, star-shaped and cross-shaped, were drawn, spontaneously and humorously, by the horses, the peacooks, the dogs, together with the vines. We have laid them here in a continuance pattern.
We wove, into a warp-patterned brocade, hte small world of the animals spread endlessly in the stars of the tiles, trying best use of the original colors of the Seljuk tiles such as sacred blue, charming white, and black.
Tō-sai Yūba-mon(Galloping Horse Design on the White Porcelain)
"AKAE" is a type of Chinese pottery product of which preliminary designs are drawn by red, green, blue, and black glaze on the white porcelain. It influenced far to the European ceramic arts in the Ming Dynasty, China days (14C~17C, AD).
We have modeled one of the "AKAE" designs depicting galloping horses and added the collection of luck-bringing items, like seven treasures, clove, and peony arabesque as symbol of riches and honors.
We have woven into warp-patterned brocade with our exquisite weaving tschnique, the brushwork of the galloping horses and the charm of the "AKAE" of the Ming Dynasty.
