引き箔 Hikihaku

Concept

古来より京都西陣の帯に織り込まれてきた「箔」があります。戦後「着物」の紋様が色鮮やかになり「帯」も鮮やかな色合いが必要となり、それに織り込まれる「箔」もカラフルさが求められ「銀箔」を薬品で加工する「焼き箔」やアルミ箔などに色付けする「引き箔」という技術が生まれました。

There is “foil” that has been woven into the Nishijin sash of Kyoto since ancient times.
After WWII, the pattern of the "kimono" became brighter, and the "obi (sash)" needed a brighter shade, and the "foil" woven into it also needed to be colorful.
Then came the technology of "baking foil," which processes silver foil with chemicals, and "hikihaku," which colors aluminum foil.
