■ What is "upcycling"?
"Upcycling" is the recycling of products that have a higher value than the original products. Today, it is attracting attention as a sustainable approach.
We reuse beautiful Japanese kimono fabrics to make various products. We make the lives of people all over the world beautiful with the kimono upcycling.
During the Edo period, kimonos were repeatedly unraveled, washed, and remade, and have been worn for many years. And those that couldn't be worn were remodeled into children's play clothes, baby diapers, and clogs.
Since ancient times, the Japanese have thought that things also have a life, so they had the spirit of valuing Japanese things. And those who have a "spirit of valuing things" are rich in heart. Akizakura is working on an "upcycling" to enrich the hearts of people around the world.
■ Why is it a "kimono"?
The Japanese have been wearing kimono for a long time. Kimono like today was born in the Heian period (794-1192).
Kimono is one of the traditional Japanese crafts, and is carefully made one by one by professional craftsmen using traditional techniques. By knowing the technique and feelings, you can feel the charm of kimono even more. Kimono is not just "clothes", as it is described as "art that can be worn".
However, it is now used as a fertilizer for chests of drawers. At Akizakura, we would like to upcycle those kimonos and preserve the beauty of kimonos made by craftsmanship for posterity.
■ Why is it craftsmanship?
All Akizakura upcycling products are made by skilled Japanese craftsmen. Made by skilled craftsmen, it is not only beautiful, but also durable and long lasting. Enjoy your daily life with beautiful products that make the best use of Japanese craftsmanship.
In addition, the number of craftsmen is decreasing year by year due to mechanization. However, machines cannot make products that give a feeling of human warmth. We ask craftsmen to make products because we also want to support the craftsmen who are working with all their heart.
