【職人技】800年前の貴族も使っていた！？　ブレスレッドの製作プロセス 【13か国語字幕】

Hi Guys!!! This video introduces the process of making a bracelet by a skilled Japanese artisan. ▶What is Kumihimo? “Kumihimo” refers to a cord that is woven diagonally, unlike woven fabrics that are done horizontally and vertically. It is a practical gem with a wide variety of colors, elasticity, and durability. ▶Characteristics of Iga-Kumihimo Iga-Kumihimo is a type of cord made in Mie Prefecture. The main material is silk thread, and gold and silver threads and chains are used to make colorful kumihimo. 4, 8, and 24-strand braids are handmade by the craftsmen. The more braids are made, the more the expression of the craft changes. Also, the beauty of the braids, which intermingle and shine, is created by hand. The Takadai, which is used to make the most luxurious cords, can produce intricate patterns, and the handiwork of veteran craftsmen who move nearly 70 weights to assemble elegant braided cords is mesmerizing to behold. ▶History of Iga-Kumihimo It is said that the art of Kumihimo was introduced to Japan in the Nara period (710-794) with the arrival of Buddhism. At that time, it was used for sutras, kesa (ceremonial robes), and the sokutai (ceremonial belt) that was essential for royalty’s attire and was also highly artistic. During the Warring States period and the Edo period (1603-1867), it was used as a decorative cord for armor and swords, which leads to the demand for it increased rapidly. Craftsmen involved in the making of armors and swords were protected by the shogunate. Kumihimo was used for the development of new things items such as tobacco pouches and inro (seal case) through the friendly competition among craftsmen. In the Meiji period (1868-1912), the industry declined with the abolition of the sword, but it regained its popularity due to the increase in the demand for Japanese-style clothing, which allowed more products to be made available to the general public. ▶Who we are Suigenkyo Online Store is an e-commerce site specializing in Japanese traditional crafts and artifacts.
