"A traditional textile studio where veteran Hirano Kikuo teaches the ancient tsuzure-ori method of weaving silk tapestries and brocades—an exacting craft performed using jagged, razor-sharp fingernails—preserving one of the area’s oldest and increasingly rare techniques; smaller woven pieces and jewellery offer accessible entry points for visitors." - Claire Knox

We had the privilege to witness a presentation of the master's craft and a demonstration of his skills. Extremely impressive. We will not forget the hour we spent learning about Tsuzure, nor the generosity and patience of the master. Witnessing such a level of mastery and dedication filled our hearts with admiration. Thank you!!

My mom and I did the tour and weaving experience here. We both had a great time and learnt a lot. By the time I’d gotten into groove and we finished making our coasters 2 hours had flown by. Hirano-san was very patient with us and guided us through the process and helped fix our mistakes 😃 Highly recommended as a hands-on relaxing experience for adults.

We tried the accessory making experience and it was so fun and interesting! We learned a lot about this rare and wonderful weaving technique that allows these incredibly skilled artisans to make painting-like tapestries and textiles, and finally had the chance to use the loom to make our own accesories. The teacher is very kind and patient and explains everything in a very easy way! Totally recommended 👍

What a privilege to learn from and to receive guidance from a master of this art with ~70 years of experience. Feel extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to experience the 1-day workshop with such care and attention. Very much enjoyed our talks as well. Thank you so much again.
