Kurashiki Knotting: For cold, chilly wooden chairs.
Eighty years ago, Mr. Otsumura conceived of a chair pad called "Kurashiki Knotting." Its simple and durable construction means it can last for 50 years, or even a lifetime if well-maintained. When placed on a cold wooden chair in winter, it protects your bottom from the chill.
Kurashiki Knotting was created when sitting on the floor was still the norm in Japan. It was born in anticipation of a future where chairs would be commonly used. Because the weft is wool, it has a thick finish, making it comfortable to sit on and enjoyed by many users. It is an item to be cherished and used for a long time.
Wool has strong resilience, so it doesn't flatten.
Furthermore, its characteristic is warmth. Like a rug, it is tightly woven and firm, so it takes years for it to become flexible.
Even after about 10 years of use, it still looks almost new, and it won't show wear until it's been sat on even longer.
Kurashiki Knotting is a hand-woven chair pad conceived by Kichinosuke Otsumura, the first director of the Kurashiki Folk Craft Museum, and has been produced with the same design for 80 years.
The Kurashiki Hand-Dyeing and Hand-Weaving Research Institute was founded in 1956 and exists as part of the Folk Craft Movement. It teaches hand-weaving, spinning, dyeing, etc., and creates healthy and unpretentious items of beauty that are used in everyday life. Kurashiki Knotting is one such item. Woolen threads are tied one by one to the warp threads. It is warm, durable, and will serve you for a long time.
The user's individuality is welcome, but the maker's individuality is unnecessary.
Kurashiki Knotting is a culmination of Kichinosuke Otsumura's philosophy of craftsmanship. Its beloved appearance, which transcends changing times, was supported by the makers' will, carefully passed down through generations.
