  • Boro / Ranru

    ぼろ/襤褸

     

    People say Boro is the art.

    I agree that Boro is beautiful as the art.

     

    However.

     

    Boro is not a word for patchworking.

    Boro is not a technique of mending.

    Boro represents the poverty in Japan, Shame and Pride.

     

    Boro isn't just about "worn" fabric.

    Boro carries a lot of stories, and the Japanese Culture.

     

    We are here to share.

    We make "To-Be-Authentic Boro" today to respect the Japanese.

     

  • Boro and Sashiko

    The silent voice of Japanese people

    What is the difference of Boro and Sashiko?

     What we make today is "To be Authentic Boro".In order to make it authentic,we have to use the Boro.We have to do Sashiko on the Boro. Most importantly,We would like to care for the Boro.We would like to talk to the Boro.
