Description

Red seals were originally given to temples and shrines as proof of the delivery of sutra copies. Nowadays, each temple and shrine has its own unique mark and various colored seals, and there are many wonderful red seals that you will want to look back on again and again later. The textured fabric of Tatsumura Bijutsu Orimono enhances the special feeling of the book as a place to collect such commemorative seals.

A red seal book with a cover full of history and tradition is a recommended item for creating memories of your travels. Please use it as an item to record your precious memories.

The pattern may differ slightly from that shown in the photo due to the fabric cutting process. Please understand.
The paper used for the red seal book is white Japanese paper. In the process of papermaking, some substances may remain on the surface of the paper, but this does not mean that the paper is dirty.

Oshidori Karakusa-mon Nishiki(Brocade with Mandarin Ducks and Arabesques Pattern)

On such occasions as the inauguration of the Todaiji Daibutsu or on the anniversary of Emperor Shomu’s death, a large number of banners of all sizes were hung on the temple pillars and elsewhere. These banners were decorated with precious brocade as shown by numerous examples still preserved in the Shosoin Repository. The original brocade from which this fabric was reproduced is the one used as the end decoration of one of the streamers a ttached to a banner. The design consists of a pair of mandarin ducks facing each other on a lotus blossom, the whole being surrounded by a floral scroll forming a circular pattern not symmetrical but in a pleasing balance. Strewn between circular patterns are floral scrolls in lozenge form. Our brocade is woven with a warp cloth weaving technique,l eaving richness of the original textile.

Shosoin Pattern Collection

Since its establishment in 1894, Tatsumura Bijutsu Orimono has been engaged in textile production based on "restoration and creation. Among these, research and restoration of Shosoin treasures is one of the cornerstones of the company's activities. Since Heizo Tatsumura, the founder of Tatsumura Bijutsu Orimono, conducted research on ancient textile fragments at Shosoin and restored them, his knowledge, techniques, and spirit have been passed down through the generations to today's Tatsumura Bijutsu Orimono.
In this feature, we have selected notable patterns from among the many Shosoin-derived patterns that we have restored. We hope you will see, touch, and feel the delicacy and beauty hidden in Shosoin treasures. Please enjoy them to your heart's content.
