From the HP: Yamanaka Kumiki Kobo: Kiyomizu Kumiki [Nario Yamanaka] This is an old Kiyomizu-style Kumiki puzzle, designed by Nario Yamanaka, the fourth generation of Yamanaka Kumiki Kobo. It is a powerful work reminiscent of the Kiyomizu stage, with 54 wooden pieces intersecting at right angles in multiple layers. The name "Kiyomizu" is said to have been given to it by the Finnish designer Kaj Frank when he visited Japan, based on its shape. It is a design that can be enjoyed as an object, utilizing the wooden structure used in shrine architecture. *This product is a vintage item. This product does not include a package designed by Sori Yanagi. *Due to the nature of wood products, there may be individual differences in the grain and color. Yamanaka Kumiki Yamanaka Kumiki Kobo's Kumiki puzzles were made as traditional Hakone crafts until recent years. Production was mostly for export to the United States before and after the war, but it was discovered by Bruno Munari, Taro Okamoto, and Sori Yanagi, and it came to be highly regarded both in Japan and abroad as a traditional Japanese craft. Production of the Kumiki puzzles has now ceased, making them difficult to obtain. Yamanaka Kumiki Kobo The history began when the first generation, Tsunetaro Yamanaka (1874-1954), a sashimono craftsman, expressed his surroundings in Kumiki. The second generation, Waichi Yamanaka (1902-1943), incorporated daily topics such as historical buildings and sports competitions, The third generation, Hirokichi Yamanaka (1905-1980), designed Kumiki with various animal motifs, including the elephant, which is also famous for winning the Good Design Award. And the fourth generation, Nario Yamanaka (1936-), changed the style from the previous ones and poured his passion into creating new Kumiki that showcased the structural aspects, called abstract Kumiki. His designed works attracted attention in the fields of engineering and design, and widely made the existence of Kumiki known both in Japan and abroad.
