Iwai Tsuzura Store - Tokyo
Tsuzura is a craftwork that was first made by craftsmen in Kanda, Tokyo, early in the Genroku era. Although there were more than 250 tsuzura stores all over Japan at the beginning of the Showa era, there are only two stores left in Tokyo today. One of them is "Iwai Tsuzura ten" in Chuo-ku. The popularity of tsuzura has been growing again recently, not just as a container for kimono or accessories but as a home decoration and a gift for overseas.
... we introduce maestro Ryoichi Iwai of "Iwai Tsuzura-ten," located on Amazake Yokocho Street, Nihonbashi, the only store that crafts and sells Tsuzura products in Chuo-ku today. The store was established at the end of the Edo era, and has been handing down the traditional technique of crafting "Tsuzura" for the past 200 years, since the 17th Century.
At our store, we put "washi" - Japanese rice paper made in Ogawa city in Saitama, over the bamboo basket weaved by a bamboo craftsman in Sado, Tateyama or Kyoto, to strengthen the basket. Then, we paint with a mixture of persimmon and tannin over the paper for base coating, which holds the lacquer. I inherited this special technique from my father but it took me seven to eight years to learn it. Although I strongly hope to hand down these traditional technique to the next generation, I strongly doubt my children will inherit it because in the division of labor, other craftsmen such as basket makers and lacquerware brush makers are also decreasing. The brushes sold at home centers are not thick enough for our work. Thinking from various angles, it is difficult to pass down all these techniques to next generations,...

Its height was from the Meiji period to the Taisho period and there were many tsuzura craftsman in Nihonbashi (Chuo Ward, Tokyo), a famous town for kimono, and there was also a tsuzura traders' union.

kyoo tsuzura 京葛籠 wicker box from Kyoto
by Watanabe shop 渡邉商店
made from moosoochiku 孟宗竹 Mosochiku bamboo grown in Kyoto, which is used to the differences of temperature in summer and winter.
The corners are softened with handmade washi Japanese paper paper from 宇和島 Uwajima, Ehime.
Their boxes are well liked by Kabuki actors and Sumo wrestlers.
渡邉商店は日本で唯一、葛籠製作の全工程を行う店舗です。本来葛籠づくりは、多くの伝統工芸の製作工程と同様に、竹を編む生地師、和紙を張る張り師、塗りを行う塗り師などそれぞれの職人による分業が一般的。しかし渡邉商店では、「こだわった物づくりをして、お客さんの希望に応えていきたい」と、竹選びからお客様の手元に届けるまでの全てを手掛ける、一貫製作にこだわっています。使用するのは、寒暖の差が激しい気候の中で育った、京都・洛西の孟宗竹。この竹から剥ぎ取った、厚さ1ミリの竹の薄皮を用い、強度に優れる四つ目編みで美しく編み込みます。角になる部分は緩やかな曲線に仕上げ、その上に張るのは宇和島産の手漉き和紙。この和紙も購入後、2～3年間乾燥させてから使うというこだわり方です。これら全ての工程において、一切の妥協をしないからこそ、着物を日常的に扱う歌舞伎界や相撲界からも一目置かれる名品が生まれるのです。
