"Monpluie Bouge" Folding Umbrella

●Material：Polyester/cotton/nylon/aluminum/acrylic ●Size：L78×10×H5cm/340g ●This is a three-fold umbrella for both rain and shine. The “Kanto stitch” (Kantō-nui), a precise center seaming technique, is applied to create a 55 cm-long, eight-bone umbrella, which is quite large for a three-fold umbrella. It eliminates the weakness of folding umbrellas, which were deemed unsuitable for strong winds and heavy rain. In addition to the cover, it also comes with a pouch in which the umbrella can fully fit. ●Artist：montblanc “Montblanc Yamaguchi” is a Western umbrella manufacturer founded in 1960. The hogushi-ori technique, which is synonymous with the company, is a complex process that involves weaving a tentative cloth with one tentative thread every few centimeters, applying colors one by one by hand printing, removing the dyed threads, and then weaving the cloth again. This technique is passed on to the next generation by Kimie Yamaguchi, a traditional craftsman. “On a dreary rainy day, I want people to have an umbrella that makes them feel better, even just mood-wise”, says Yamaguchi as she inherits the romanticism of the first generation and continues to hone her craft every day. https://tokyoteshigoto.tokyo/studio/montblanc/ https://www.montblanc-y.co.jp
