Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

Hiyoshiya is a long-established Kyoto umbrella store founded in the late Edo period. For over 160 years since its founding, the company has continued to make Kyoto umbrellas, inheriting traditional techniques.
Even today, they still produce and repair various types of Japanese umbrellas, and are the only workshop that continues to carry on the techniques of "Kyoto Japanese umbrellas" that have been passed down from generation to generation.

The workshop is located in Nishijin, Kyoto, an area that is home to many of Kyoto's historical and cultural heritage, including Nishijin textiles, and where traditional, charming streets still remain.
After completing the experience of making the "Kotozato" table lamp and touring the workshop, you can enjoy a stroll around the historical city of Kyoto. We look forward to welcoming you to our store.
