[About Kurume Kasuri]
Kurume Kasuri is a retro belt-driven power loom from the Showa era, comprising 20 interconnected looms operated by a single motor. It was established in 1948 and is a representative traditional pre-dyed fabric of Japan. The fabric is known for its soft texture, reminiscent of handwoven materials. With many manual processes involved, it takes 2 to 4 months and over 30 steps to complete the weaving. The finished fabrics are all subjected to a 10% shrinkage through a process of hot water treatment and natural drying. This fabric is perfect for those who seek meticulously crafted traditional textiles from Japan.

[Characteristics of the Weaving]
The fabric features bold stripes created with a combination of six colors. The color palette is inspired by Japan's four seasons and various seasonal events.The term "stripe" ("shima" in Japanese) originally referred to cotton fabric with vertical stripes imported from foreign countries through Nanban trade. It was called "shima-mono" (island fabric) because it was brought from distant lands ("shima") and later came to be known as "stripe" during the Edo period.
