■Brand & Background
Founded in 1896.
Matsuda Wagasa Ten, which has continued to protect the tradition and techniques of Kanazawa Japanese umbrellas, is the only remaining specialty store for Kanazawa Japanese umbrellas among the 118 umbrella shops that existed at its peak.

Currently, the techniques are passed down by skilled artisans, centered around the third-generation owner, Shigeki Matsuda.
It takes over two months to complete a single Japanese umbrella, with all processes carefully finished by hand.

This is a piece filled with the value of tradition and craftsmanship, unlike mass-produced items.

■Example Uses
・Going out in kimono/yukata
・Pre-wedding photoshoots/photo weddings
・Shop displays and interior decor
・Props for stage performances, events, and photoshoots

■Additional Information
・Each item will be carefully packed and shipped individually.
・Umbrellas are sold individually.
・Discounts are available for bulk purchases, so please comment if you wish to purchase multiple.
