I am offering a manual long umbrella from Maehara Kouei Shoten in olive green with a patterned design. Famous for being used by the Imperial Household, it is said to be durable with many bones. I purchased it a long time ago from a Takashimaya sales representative, but I used the parasol and kept the rain umbrella without using it. The floral pattern, tassel, and handle are all very lovely, but I feel it's a bit heavy for me now. I would be grateful if someone would use it. Total length: 89 cm Diameter: 55 cm Weight: Approximately 500g Please understand that it has been stored at home for a long time. I will ship it via Rakuraku or Yu-Yu. Quoted from the Maehara Shoten website: We, "Tombow Parasol Maehara Kouei Shoten," were founded in 1948 (Showa 23), in Asakusa Mitsujimachi, Tokyo, shortly after the end of the war. Because of the shortage of goods at the time, careful manufacturing without sparing any effort supported people's lives. The brand name "Tombow" (dragonfly) is derived from its nature of only moving forward and not retreating. It has been familiar as a lucky "winning insect" since ancient times, and was used in the Sengoku period for the front of helmets, sword tsuba, and decorations on jinbaori. With this background, our umbrellas are imbued with the thought of "unwavering determination." The kanji for "umbrella" (傘) contains four "people," which we interpret as a symbol of the craftsmen who are responsible for the four processes: "weaving the fabric," "assembling the bones," "making the handle," and "finishing the umbrella." Among these, the "finishing the umbrella" process is the most important, as the cutting and sewing of the fabric are key to determining the beauty of the finished product, such as the form, tension, and sound when opening and closing the umbrella. The delicate work, which requires precision to the millimeter, is a condensation of the craftsman's sensitivity and skilled techniques. In 2023, the 75th anniversary of our founding, we renovated and reopened our store in Asakusa Mitsujimachi, our origin. Mitsujimachi is a historic town named after the three streets where craftsmen and merchants once came and went. It is an irreplaceable place for us, where skills and pride have been cultivated. "To enrich people's lives with umbrellas" With this philosophy in mind, we will continue to put our thoughts into each umbrella and pass them on to the next generation. We hope that you will feel the skill and heart of the craftsmen in the umbrellas of "Tombow Parasol Maehara Kouei Shoten" in your daily life.
