It's a very popular studio, and many people may already know about it, but it's a studio of \"Kyoto Bingata,\" a blend of Ryukyu Bingata and Kyo Yuzen techniques. The dyeing is done by hand using a brush, using stencils. The various designs are also familiar and popular. Recently, the studio's YouTube channel has also gained a large fan base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e One of the features of Kuriyama Studio is the wide variety of fabrics they offer. If you break down a dyeing work, you can probably divide it into the \"fabric\" that serves as the canvas, the \"design\" that determines what is painted, and the \"technique\" that determines how it is painted. However, even if the same \"design\" and \"technique\" are used, the impression of the final work can vary greatly depending on the \"fabric\" that is the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis has gotten long, but I have seen this \"Frog on a Willow\" and other works made from different fabrics, and they give off completely different impressions. The change in impression means that the type of kimono you pair it with will change, and the image you want to express through your coordination will also change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFabric characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt;br\u0026gt;This fabric is Oshima Tsumugi fabric from Kotobuki Tsumugi Studio in Kagoshima Prefecture.

The flowing lines of the triangular pyramid-shaped dried nets are beautiful. However, they are often used as a background, placed next to main themes such as waves, plovers, or flowers. This unique design takes the \"Aboshi\" as its central axis and likens them to bamboo shoots, which are auspicious for family prosperity and growth, and captures them spread out. By enlarging the image, the flowing lines are further emphasized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e It is dyed on silk red plum fabric.
