【Our recommended points】
・Crafted using the traditional techniques of Watanabe Koinobori, a company with 120 years of history, this product draws inspiration from the koinobori (carp streamer) depicted in the ukiyo-e masterpiece "Suido Bridge and Surugadai" by Utagawa Hiroshige, created around 170 years ago. The artwork captures a scene from what is now the Suido Bridge area in Tokyo.
・Each piece is meticulously hand-dyed by skilled artisans.
This product uses a distinctive dyeing technique that sets it apart from the traditional ""Ten"" method. A paintbrush, similar to an ink brush, is used with a unique flicking technique to create its stunning designs.
・Versatile in its design, it can be displayed outdoors or appreciated as a stylish, modern interior decoration.
Additionally, it features Pearl Tone, a high-grade, water-repellent, and durable finish commonly found in Japanese kimonos.
This product brings to life the iconic ukiyo-e artwork ""Suido Bridge and Surugadai"" by Utagawa Hiroshige, part of his renowned One Hundred Famous Views of Edo series. The design is inspired by the carp streamer depicted in the artwork, which was flown in Edo (modern-day Tokyo) around 170 years ago. Master artisans have reimagined this historic motif, turning it into beautifully crafted koinobori and folding screens.
Hiroshige's bold composition and refined monochrome color palette make this piece an ideal addition to modern interiors, bringing a touch of Japanese elegance. Each item is meticulously hand-dyed using Watanabe Koinobori's 120-year-old traditional techniques by certified artisans who hold a national craftsmanship qualification designated by the Minister of Economy, Trade, and Industry.

Washing
When washing, gently hand wash the item in water with a mild liquid kitchen detergent (avoid using dry-cleaning detergents or bleach-based detergents). Use a container large enough to comfortably hold the carp streamer. Do not wash for long periods. If there are stains, hand wash only the affected areas, being careful not to rub the gold leaf on carp streamers with gold accents. After washing, hang the streamer to dry without folding or overlapping, ensuring it dries thoroughly. Do not use a dryer. Avoid dry cleaning, as it can damage the mouthpiece and cause discoloration.
Rainy Days
Carp streamers with water-repellent coatings are prone to losing their water resistance, while those without such treatments may degrade over time. For this reason, avoid flying carp streamers on rainy days. If the streamer gets wet, gently wipe off the moisture with a dry cloth, allow it to dry completely, and store it in a dry place with low humidity.
