This umbrella is made using Toray's umbrella fabric "Miratore," which is tightly woven with fine denier (extremely fine threads).
This high-quality umbrella has a supple texture, absorbs the impact of rain, and produces a gentle sound. We offer original umbrellas, each handmade by a craftsman with over 50 years of experience! 
Each umbrella is handmade
Komiya, who has a wealth of experience, works with veteran craftsmen with over 30 years of experience in the field, and is only able to produce a maximum of about 10 pieces a day in his workshop.
"Each one is handmade, so we can't make them in large quantities.
With mass-produced umbrellas becoming mainstream and genuine umbrellas becoming scarce, we have customers who own several of our umbrellas, and it makes us happy when customers say they've found a one-of-a-kind umbrella that they'll never own again."
(Producer Komiya)

How Koshu-ori umbrellas are made
It is said that the umbrella making process has more than 50 steps,
Komiya, who has a wealth of experience, works with veteran craftsmen with over 30 years of experience in the field, and is only able to produce a maximum of about 10 pieces a day in his workshop.
Komiya carefully crafts each and every Koshu-ori umbrella .
(1) Cutting and stitching : After specifying the design, color, and pattern, the 100% polyester Koshu-woven umbrella fabric is woven and cut to fit the umbrella specifications.
Then, the fabric is sewn together to fit the shape of the bones using waxed thread.
Komiya uses durable domestic materials for the umbrella fabric and handles.
"Currently, low-priced products made overseas dominate the umbrella market, but
"Umbrellas are delicate products, with small parts and thin ribs, so if they're not handled properly, they'll break easily. That's why we're particular about using the strongest domestic materials possible," says producer Komiya.
(2) Wrapping on the potter's wheel, attaching the dowels, and attaching the dew tip
A part called a rokuro, which holds the ribs of the umbrella together, is attached.
Then, after attaching the joint between the main rib and the support rib, called a dowel, a part called a "tsuyusaki" is attached to the tip of the rib, which spreads out at the end.
For long umbrellas, protect the rollers and dowels with cloth.
(3) Stitching, finishing, and attaching the handle The fabric is placed on the frame and carefully attached with waxed thread.
After finishing the fine details and adding the hands, it's complete.
"The handle is the last part that is attached, which is the face of the umbrella. That's why I try to make it as unique as possible, by adding tassels, etc." (Producer Komiya)
We also offer after-sales service!
This umbrella is a strong one, but if it does break over the years of use, you can have it repaired.
"I would be happy if you would use it for a long time and cherish it," says producer Komiya.

Care:
After use, lightly wipe the fabric and ribs and dry in the shade to keep your umbrella in good condition.
When washing, use a mild detergent and a soft sponge and dry in the shade.
