御宿(みやど)せし　そのときよりと　ひととはば　
網代(あじろ)の海に　夕影(ゆうかげ)の松 Yukage no Matsu

The temple was founded around 822.

北条時頼 Hojo Tokiyori stayed here over night around 1269.
. read wikipedia : Hōjō Tokiyori .
Tokiyori climbed the mountain and had a wonderful view of a matsu 松 pine tree in the evening sun.
The name 御宿町 Onjuku "town where an honorable person stayed" relates to this event.
Tokiyori wrote a poem about a pine tree in the evening sun:
「御宿(みやど)せし　そのときよりと　ひととはば　網代(あじろ)の海に　夕影(ゆうかげ)の松」

In the compound is a cave, 大日洞 Dainichi Den, dating to the Kamakura period.

In the cave is a statue of Dainichi Nyorai and Naminori Kannon 波乗り観音 Kannon riding the waves.
People come to this Kannon to pray for the good health and good luck
of relatives or friends, but never for themselves.

MINGEI - Shingenbukuro leather pouch

http://darumapilgrim.blogspot.jp/2010/05/inden-deerskin-products.html

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Shingen-bukuro. Shingenbukuro 信玄袋
Shingen leather drawstring-pouch

The normal Samurai outfit did not have any pockets, so small pouches or bags were used to carry things. Some say that Takeda Shingen was the first to use such a bag, hence the name. The bag is made with two layers of ray-skin (untanned hide) and lined with leather. A drawstring keeps it closed.



The Shingen Bukuro is an essential part of a formal uniform. Since there are no pockets available, where do you carry things like your car keys, wallet, or cell phone. This type of bag was used for the first time by famous Daimyo Takeda Shingen (1521-1573) on the battlefield. Thus the name of this traditional style of bag is "Shingen Bukuro", which can be translated as "Shingen's pouch". This ultimate Shingen Bukuro is made of two tanned rayskins and lined with leather.

Deerskin goods from Yamanashi

a government-designated "Traditional Crafts of Japan"




Only produced in Yamanashi, inden are goods made from deerskin with designs in Japanese lacquer.
Inden has its origin in the leather accessories that were brought from India in the early Edo period. By late Edo, production had begun on coin purses, waist sashes, cigarette holders and so on. Nowadays, modern items such as purses, wallets, card holders, handbags and belts have been added to the variety of goods available. Inden production still uses its traditional methods.

Kooshuu Indenya 甲州印伝屋 / 印傳屋
Koshu Inden-Ya
Inden Museum ONLINE


Founded in 1582, INDEN-YA continues to create Inden, a 400-year-old form of traditional leatherwork.
While Inden has been popular among a select few who were interested in traditional Japanese culture, it has garnered very little attention from the general public.

Our mission was to communicate Inden's allure and the historical nature of the brand, and to improve awareness of the INDEN-YA brand through renewal of the brand's site.
Our primary aim was to attract people in their 20s through 40s, who comprise the primary users of the Internet, and the younger generation that prefers minimalistic designs.

(the name "INDEN" comes from "India")


Patterns

TONBO 蜻蛉
Tonbo is the Japanese word for dragonfly. Samurais appreciated how they fly straight and preferred to use this motif for armor and ornaments.　
katsumushi ("winning bugs").

KOZAKURA 　小桜
Throughout the ages, the word "hana (flower)" referred to sakura (cherry blossoms). Their ephemeral nature paralleled that of bushido (the way of the samurai) and this motif was frequently used on armor and helmets.

SEIGAIHA 　清海波
This refers to the infinite expanse of the vast ocean. It was used as an auspicious motif to invite good fortune.

Techniques
urushi-tsuke 漆付け lacquer application

fusube gihoo ふすべ技法 fusube method
This is much older. Smoke creates the patterns on the skin. Craftsmen tie deerskin around a rotating cylinder, next fix paper patterns on the leather and turn it over a smoky fire. The smoke darkens the exposed leather, thus creating patterns. It also leaves a smoky aroma that lingers even after many years of use.
