A living tradition passed down through history, the beautiful summer
fabric Ojiya chijimi crepe ramie.

Since 2011, Nuno has worked together with time-honoured chijimi ramie
trading house Nishiwaki Shoten (founded 1773) to create new uses for
Ojiya chijimi in harmony with contemporary lifestyles.

Likewise, Kyoto Tango region chijimi textile innovator Tango Miyashin
Ltd. has created clothing with washi-kinu chijimi, a
wonderfully breezy-textured paper-silk summer crepe.

Woven with highly overspun yarns, chijimi fabrics are synonymous with
Japanese summer, showcased direct from the local weavers. Please come
take a look.
