・Your Own Dyed Tote Bags as Souvenirs
・A Dyeing Studio with Over 100 Years of History
Tomita Sen Kogei (Tokyo Some Monogatari Museum) is a long-established studio founded in 1882.
Their brand, SARAKICHI, builds upon the history of kimono and traditional techniques while infusing contemporary trends to create new designs.
It was also used for the official scarves of the Tokyo Olympics held in 2021.
・Including the Factory tour, led by the artisan
Dyeing technique Selected as Among the 42 'Traditional Crafts of Tokyo'
Dyeing businesses specializing in Edo Komon and Edo Sarasa dyeing, in search of high-quality water abundant in Kanda and Asakusa, gradually moved up the clear stream of the Kanda River, relocating to Edogawabashi and then to Ochiai (Shinjuku Ward). Today, they continue to inherit traditional techniques as one of the few local industries in Shinjuku Ward.
Shinjuku Ward: One of Japan's Three Major Dyeing Industry Centers, Alongside Kyoto and Kanazawa
Until the mid-1960s, the area around the Kanda River and Myoshoji River in Tokyo (where they merge at Takadanobaba) was home to over 300 dyeing-related businesses.
Thus, Shinjuku Ward was recognized as one of Japan's three major dyeing industry centers, alongside Kyoto and Kanazawa.
However, due to the shrinking kimono market, the number has drastically reduced to about 10 companies today.
