Our "circle gains Nishimuraya" is 1905 years, hundred more than years since Matsunosuke founder Nishimura hands 描友 Zen as a business, we have been involved in the dyeing ray of kimono.
Since its inception, it devoted to Ichigyo, but we have overlaid the devotion of craft staining of cultural inheritance, prolonged recession and, apart kimono, in the critical situation of the traditional craft industry by the inflow of foreign products, of survival we have been exploring the road.
And, from the feelings and would like to know the world of staining to you more, to play the "cocoon" Kyomachiya to about 10 years ago, Kyoto Yuzen experience workshop, I was allowed to start the wrapping cloth wrapped how experience classroom.
This was an awesome experience! We had someone, who was fluent in English (important for some people), explaining every step as we went, while checking on us and giving us help as needed. It is the KyoWorkshop area, so there were other groups of people doing other crafts. We made our own chop sticks while other groups were dying fabric (that looked cool, as well!). A surprise to us at the end is we got to dye a carry bag for our chopsticks!
Amazing people and activity ! Highly recommend it !
The staff were very friendly and helpful, even with a language barrier. Saga was English speaking and guided us through the whole chopstick making process. Excellent activity for a tourist.
とても親切丁寧に教えていただき、内容にも満足しています。とても楽しかったです。また京都に旅行した際は利用したいと考えています！
