    Kurume Kasuri is woven on retro belt-driven power looms from the Showa era, with twenty looms operated by a single motor. Founded in 1948, the mill continues to produce one of Japan's most iconic yarn-dyed textiles. The fabric is known for its soft, handwoven-like texture. Because many processes are done manually, production involves more than thirty steps and takes two to four months to complete. This textile is ideal for those who wish to create pieces rooted in traditional Japanese craftsmanship.


    This textile is woven using *yokogasuri*, a technique in which the pattern is created by tying and dyeing the weft yarns before weaving. With a high degree of design freedom, yokogasuri is also known as *e-gasuri* ("picture ikat"). The weft is wound carefully onto a flat wooden bobbin called a"tong," aligned to match the pattern. Together with specialized weaving machines and highly skilled tying artisans, this technique represents one of the highest levels of ikat weaving in the world - making Kurume Kasuri a rare and precious textile tradition still preserved today.


    The *shippo* (seven treasures) motif is composed of circles overlapping by one-quarter sections, forming an unbroken chain known as *shippo-tsunagi*. The circle symbolizes harmony and the precious bonds between people. Because the pattern expands infinitely in all directions, it is considered an auspicious motif representing prosperity, growth, and continuity in family and business.
    The term *shippo* also refers to the seven treasures described in the Buddhist scripture *The Sutra of Immeasurable Life*, suggesting that human relationships and connections are treasures of equal value. Shimogawa Orimono has adopted this motif as its brand symbol.
