The Continuing Craftsmanship of Artisans from the Meiji Era: "Chusen" Dyeing Technique
Kagamune handkerchiefs are made using the traditional Japanese exclusive dyeing technique called "Chusen" (tie-dyeing), which has been passed down since the Meiji era. It is characterized by applying dye all at once while preventing backstaining, making it reversible and usable on both sides.
Due to the handcrafting process, subtle “playfulness” appears in the colors and patterns, changing the tone the more you use it. Each piece grows into a unique existence with a one-of-a-kind expression that becomes more vivid over time.
