Description
A folding screen is called Byoubu in Japanese. Its name comes from shutting wind. It was necessary furniture for life as partitioning of space since the Nara era (710~794). Nowadays, it is developing a new folding screen for fitting modern life. You can decorate it standing up and hanging it on a wall using a hanger.
The iris ( Kakitsubata ) bloomong at the waterside has been enjoyed from ancient times in Japan.
Hichisai-haku：Chemical Brass Leaf (Material pasted on Washi paper)
On the rich background of irises, brass leaves known as Hichisai-haku are applied. It has been chemically oxidized to create a beautiful multi-colored patina.
Iris (Kakitsubata) ：Kinsai Kakou (Kinsai Processing)
This Iris-designed screen features Kinsai Processing, a technique applied to TOMESODE*, a formal Japanese kimono. The patterned sheet is prepared using a special adhesive.
Gold (alloy) leaf and gold powder are pressed or sprinkled onto the leaves, while TAKASAGO foil—a type of foil commonly used in traditional Japanese crafts such as lacquerware and decorative arts—is applied to the flowers.
The excess foil and powder are carefully removed, resulting in a stunning design with a three-dimensional effect.
