[Tokyo, Asakusa] Dye New Year's cards and postcards with Ise stencils

Ise Katagami, used in kimono stencil dyeing, is a traditional craft that has been passed down for over a thousand years in Suzuka City, Mie Prefecture. Ise Katagami is created by artisans known as stencil carvers, who use chisels to carve intricate patterns and designs into durable paper made from processed washi paper. It's amazing how many more than 900 patterns can be carved into a single square stencil measuring approximately 3 cm. This time, we'll be using stencils carved by traditional craftsman Chiaki Imasaka to stencil dye postcards. Why not dye your postcards in your favorite colors, create your own original postcards, and send them to loved ones with a message? We also offer six designs featuring the horse, next year's zodiac sign. Send one to a loved one or to yourself as a memento of your trip to Tokyo.

We also have designs for New Year's cards, including designs featuring next year's zodiac animal, the horse.

There are over 10 different designs in total, including whales, soft serve ice cream, and flower designs that even children can easily dye.
