Dye indigo at the Watanabe-Dyeing shop in Gujo Honzome, which has a history of 440 years.
"Gujo Honzome(Indigo dyeing in Gujo City)" is also designated as an intangible cultural property in Gujo City.
Indigo dye turns blue by oxidation (oxidation in water and oxidation in the air).
Cold water with a lot of oxygen is flowing in the irrigation canal in front of the dyeing place, and it is suitable for oxidation in water, so it seems that the color is good.
The environment is suitable for dyeing, and the deep deep navy blue that has been dyed more than 10 times is beautiful.
Also, the color fading due to aging gives a tasteful texture.
Isn't it the real thrill of indigo dyeing?
In addition, we asked you to add "round carp", which is a typical original pattern of Watanabe-Dyeing shop.
Two types, red and black, are produced in a limited number.

[Washing / Maintenance]
-Indigo dyeing is a state in which indigo color does not penetrate into the threads and fabrics and is not dyed, but covers the surface. Therefore, please note that the color will fade if you rub it or rub it against a damp part such as getting wet.
-Hand washing with a neutral detergent is recommended. (Please note that if you use a synthetic detergent containing bleach or fluorescent agent, it may cause unevenness or discoloration.)
-Avoid dehydrators and dryers.
-Please dry in the shade.
-Please note that if the color is transferred to leather products due to friction, the attached color cannot be removed.
-When storing for a long period of time, store in a dark place without humidity. If only a part of it is exposed to light, the exposed part may get sunburned.

All Gifu Japanese umbrellas are carefully made one by one by the hands of craftsmen.
It takes over two months to make one Japanese umbrella.
Japanese umbrellas, which are said to be ``open as flowers, closed as bamboo'', are traditional Japanese crafts that are filled with the skill of craftsmen and attention to detail.
Each Japanese umbrella is created through numerous production processes that last over two months.
The thoughtfulness of craftsmen and traditional techniques create delicate beauty.
The framework of a Japanese umbrella is made from a piece of bamboo that is split evenly and assembled so that when the umbrella is folded, it returns to its original shape.
The moment you open it, the colors of the Japanese paper and the delicate threads create a beautiful shadow that surrounds the person holding it.
All of these are the only Japanese umbrellas in the world, created through the painstaking work of craftsmen.
