KAKISHIBUZOME NOREN CURTAIN
KAKI (persimmon) SHIBU (tannin) ZOME (dye)
NR8037, NR8226 and NR822 7are made using kakishibu (persimmon tannin) which
has been used from the old days in making umbrella, baskets, wallets, pouches
and other everyday items for superior waterproof, insect-proof and anti-corrosion
properties. It has also been utilized as wood preservative. However, these
days kakishibu is receving attention for its artisict use rather than practical
use. The rustic and soft color seem to conjures up the image of the good
old country life.

Noren shown below are made using a technique called URUSHIZOME.As the name indicated, URUSHI(lacquer)ZOME(dye) designs on the noren are
created using Japanese lacquer which is known for its glossy and chic look.URUSHI
has been used in the process of making all sorts of artistically-crafted
articles although today URUSHI products are rather hard to find due to
the rapid decline of the number of URUSHI artists. |

Recommended item!
Items from NR8049-NR8051 are modeled after the popular Hakuji porcelain.
(samples shown in the above picture) which is characterized by its shiny
and silky surface, and also by the contrast between white and blue color.
These very elegant noren curtains will certainly make an Asian taste home
decor. |

What is depicted on this noren?
This noren features a drawing of a dog figurine called komainu with a bamboo basket on his
head. It might strike you as odd but it comes from a "play on kanji"(rather
than play on words.) Kanji symbol for SMILE is made up of two parts, one signifying bamboo and the other dog (not
exactly but similar). So the combination has, though not widely known,
represented the word SMILE and has been occasionally used as art subject.
over the course of centuries.considered auspicious and used for many items. The origin of the "bamboo- dog motif" is said to have been Su Shi, a Chinese calligrapher, painter, pharmacologist, poet, politician in the 11th century,
his design was inspired by the painting "Isshozu" (literally
means "one smile picture") by Rosetsu Nagasawa (1754-1799). Back
in Edo period the motif of dog and bamboo combination was quite popular
because the kanji symbol for SMILE is made up of two parts, one signifying bamboo and the other dog (not
exactly but similar). This combination was believed to bring in fortune
and happiness. As can be seen above, this noren has a dog with a bamboo
basket on his head.
Dog figurines like these can sometimes be found at souvenir shops in Japan.
