About Kibira Linen

The linen used is called Kibira. It is different from normal linen because it is produced using traditional techniques, where the threads are made by cutting the linen stock and soaking it for 1-2 days. This soaking process will not only remove the dirt on the surface of the stock but also splits the stock into fine threads and joint them back together. The presence of the black and white color streaks on the thread on the finished product is due to sun exposure. Parts of the stem which are exposed turns black, while the inner part of the stem produces white threads.

Why is goronenap futon so special?

Refined craftsmanship is deeply ingrained in both the DNA of Kyoto and Takaokaya.

All made by hand

Every product is lovingly handcrafted by experienced craftsmen using skills and techniques passed down for generations with pride for over 100 years.

Cutting

Every piece is done by the steady hands of the craftsmen. Getting this process right is very important as it determines the outcome of the final product.

sewing

Creating the outer shell of each product is no mean feat. Our craftsmen have to ensure that each piece is not only sewn at the right angles and made to the right proportions but also aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Stuffing

We place great emphasis on and take extreme care during the stuffing process because it determines the comfort level as well as the longevity of the finished products.

Finishing

At the end of the production process, striking the cushion is essential. This step is done to make sure that the cotton filling spreads evenly. Middle stitches are applied to the center of the cushions to keep the cotton filling in place.
