Ryukyu Aizome is a type of dyeing that uses a dye made from Ryukyu Ai, a plant that only grows in Okinawa in Japan.
This piece features a unique indigo color that is different from Honshu indigo.
We use a fabric called Garabo, which was woven using a spinning machine developed uniquely in Japan in the early Meiji period.
As the name suggests, it spins while making a rattling sound(Garagara), which is why it came to be called "Garabo".
Gala spinning machines do not spin threads that are thin, uniform, and beautiful, but rather threads with unique unevenness.

The Noren is originally used for the entrance of the house for the light removal.
It is also a feature of Noren that you can easily change the atmosphere of the room by hiding the back of the house from the entrance at the time of visiter, using the goods as a partition of the room and blindfold.
Since the olden days, people say that Norens Curtain are a mystical barrier against evil and can remove the bad vibes from outside that cause illness and other misfortune.a
