Kaikado was established in 1875, shortly after Japan opened its
doors to the outside world. With Western Civilization came the
importing of tinplate from England. Chazutsu is a cylinder-shaped
airtight container. For generations, it has been used to protect
foodstuffs, such as green tea leaves, from moisture and humidity.
Possessing both function and beauty, chazutsu is practical as well
as an objet d'art. We meticulously handcraft each piece in
Kaikado’s sixth-generation Kyoto studio. Gentle handling of the
chazutsu day after day brings out a mysteriously elegant sheen,
providing utility and pleasure as it ages gracefully and its beauty
increases over time with ownership. Chazutsu’s unique airtight
feature may be applied in a variety of ways, such as protecting
coffee beans, exotic spices and pasta from moisture and
humidity.

KOHCHOSAI KOSUGAwww.kohchosai.co.jp
Since ancient times, Japanese people have used bamboo to make
various utensils such as baskets and chopsticks. In 1879, Kyoto
bamboo gained a place in history when it was used by Thomas Edison
as the filament for his first electric light bulb. Twenty years
later in 1898, Kohchosai Kosuga was founded with the goal of using
of Kyoto's famous natural bamboo to “enrich the everyday lives of
people.” Since then, we have continued to meticulously craft bamboo
goods from functional products to decorative arts, always pursuing
the ideal of “beauty to the highest degree.” These high quality,
elegant bamboo pieces which combine the spirit of the traditional
with the modern will no doubt enrich our contemporary
lifestyles.

NEED'K emphasizes the search for originality to bring out the
charm and possibilities a fabric has to offer. As a leader in
advanced textile manufacturing, we believe that the beauty and
uniqueness of textiles are more important than production
convenience. Rather than simply producing at one location using a
single material, we carefully mange a combination of production
locations using different materials to create refined textures of
varied color and design. We use a handicraft approach at all levels
of the production process, from the making of threads to dyeing,
weaving and finishing.
