Create your own original incense paste using only natural incense ingredients such as powdered sandalwood, dragon brain, and clove! Zuko is a powdered incense that monks apply on their palms as a purifying scent in Buddhism. Among the Japanese scents that are used by transferring the scent to something, it is the only one that can be applied directly to the body. In ancient times, people used to collect the first morning dew that had accumulated on lotus leaves, mix sandalwood with the water, and apply it to their bodies. Unlike liquid scents, it is a powder type, so it has low volatility and does not easily diffuse into the surrounding area, making it a convenient scent that can be used without being noticed by those around you. Recommended for relaxing between work. Also, since you only need to use a small amount and don't apply too much, this item is perfect for those who can't get a strong scent in a place where there are people, but still want to add something. *Some sects, such as Zen Buddhism, do not use incense.

Machiya life has been shaped by unchanging prayers, wishes, and gratitude since ancient times. Tomidaya started out as a production wholesaler in Nishijin about 140 years ago. This building is built by mixing charcoal into the land and closing the demon gate with amulets and salt, and enshrines Kojin (the god of fire), Benten (the god of water), and Yaoyorozu gods. Masu. In addition, there is a treasure trove where the spirit of gratitude that the 11th generation received when he jumped into the fire and saved the deity during the great fire at Ise Jingu in the Meiji period is enshrined, and is used in daily life. We are here to show you the spirit of hospitality that lives on in the past, the spirit of valuing God, and the way people have lived through generations, such as drinking tea, dancing Noh, and valuing culture.

Neriko is a black pill-shaped incense that was widely used during the Heian period. In The Tale of Genji, there is a scene in which Hikaru Genji, Murasaki no Ue, and other characters are actually created and evaluated, and it is still known as one of the Six Kinds of Kaorumono. It is also used in front of the charcoal in winter during tea ceremonies. Nerika is not something to be used at room temperature, but rather to be warmed to enjoy its aroma. We placed lit charcoal in an incense burner filled with ashes, placed incense sticks on top of the warmed ashes, and enjoyed the scent that wafted through the air. Enjoy the relaxing time and space as the charcoal warms the ashes, along with the scent. It is also recommended before welcoming guests. We have boxes and bags for you to take home, as well as charcoal and incense burner ash for you to use at home.

This is a course where you can experience "Modern Kintsugi" at a long-established lacquerware store.

It is resistant to rashes and dries quickly, so you can take your work home with you on the same day. In addition, in this course, you can prepare a vessel for restoration, so you can easily experience Kintsugi empty-handed. Of course, you can also bring the vessel you want to do kintsugi. The shop is located in Nihonbashi, Tokyo, where many long-established traditional craft shops gather. During the Edo period, it prospered as a base for commerce and logistics, and even now you can feel the atmosphere of Edo culture everywhere. Why don't you experience Kintsugi, a traditional Japanese restoration technique, while enjoying a walk before and after the experience?

In this plan, you will experience the experience at NOIR CAFÉ, an atelier surrounded by plants by Miki Takeuchi, an instructor of Sanshin Oeda School of Kodo and a flower designer. Many people who ask about the art of incense talk about the ancient incense group called ``Genji incense''. Regardless of the school, ``Genjiko'' is a group of incense that is still practiced today. The designs of the answers (listening names) based on the 54 pages of The Tale of Genji are famous as ``Genji Konozu'', which are various traditional Japanese patterns such as maki-e and kimonos. In this experience, you can experience what Genji incense is like at the incense meeting, and how to listen to the scent and come up with an answer. It's hard to sit up straight, and incense parties are difficult to get into. However, this is a plan that allows those who are interested in what Genji incense is like to fully experience it. After enjoying the Genji incense, you can create your own scent just like the aristocrats of the Heian period, when The Tale of Genji was written. The Tale of Genji also depicts scent as a theme, and aristocrats used to infuse their kimonos with elaborate original scents. In this plan, you will create a scented bag by blending your own original natural fragrance. The finished scented bag can be set in a special paulownia wood box designed and arranged by top designer Miki Takeuchi with dried flowers related to the Tale of Genji, and you can take it home as a special incense burner. After the experience, we will offer scones made with the cafe's special incense ingredients and medicinal tea blended with edible flowers and herbal cordial. Please spend an elegant time in an extraordinary time warp for both mind and body.
