Hand-woven rugs that are fun to choose patterns

Yonezawa Tadashi, a hand-woven, high-density hand-woven carpet made in Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture. It is a durable and high quality carpet that has been adopted in the Prime Minister's Office. Carpets are large in size and have a strong image of being laid on the floor, but the carpets made by Yonezawa Dantsu Utakizawa Kobo are small in size that suits our daily lives. Items that combine traditional techniques with modern and sophisticated designs fit well in both Japanese and Western spaces, and just one item adds depth to the interior.

I feel happy every time I sit down

Yonezawa Takizawa Kobo creates Yonezawa Dantsu Utakizawa Kobo, which has a structure in which wool pile yarn is entwined with warp yarn, and weft yarn and entangled yarn are formed, so the yarn density is high and the waist is strong. Is a feature. Since it is durable and difficult to remove hair, there is no need for a lining, and various colors and patterns expressed by hand weaving appear on both sides with the same design.

Chair rugs are rugs for square chairs. When you touch it, you will be surprised at its thickness and plump softness. Not only in winter when you want warmth, but also when you sit on a chair without cushions or a dining chair with leather seats for a long time for work or study, just one rug makes it less tiring and more comfortable. It is active all year round, not only in the cold season. Also, because it has a solid thickness, you can use it even if you lay it directly on the floor.

The charm of the rugs of Yonezawa Tadashi and Takizawa Kobo is also in their design. The motif is the landscape of Yamagata and the designs drawn in the past, and while the graphics drawn are somewhat nostalgic, the colors and motifs match the current lifestyle to make the space more modern. A design that creates a nice atmosphere. For those who are looking for something that is more familiar to the interior, the four patterns of whimsical lattice red, flowers, uribo, and night sky are available, and the mandarin duck and hana-maki have a picture-like presence. The design can be used in both Japanese and Western styles, so it's a rug that you'll want to use forever even if your life changes.

A "small carpet" that suits your current life

Yonezawa Takizawa Kobo is a high-density hand-woven carpet founded in Yonezawa City, south of Yamagata Prefecture. Yonezawa is the northernmost textile producing area in Japan, and is now a comprehensive producing area for natural fibers and chemical fibers. It has been famous as a production center of silk fabrics since the time of the Yonezawa domain, and the fabric called "Yonezawa Ori" was of high quality and was exported overseas.

Takizawa Kobo started with the assembly and maintenance of silk looms. At that time, the production of carpets had not yet begun, but when I saw my relatives hand-weaving carpets, I thought, "It seems that it will be easier to weave depending on the weaving machine," and I started researching carpet looms. After trial and error, we devised a hand-woven loom that is easy to weave, and from 1966, we started our own hand-woven carpet business. The high technology of devising and creating a loom by themselves every time a difficult weaving or a large carpet order was received was recognized, and the carpet produced was delivered to the Prime Minister's Office and the Nissay Theater. Most of the carpets are large in size, but based on the idea of ​​"I want to make a carpet that suits my current life," I am aiming to become a modern carpet brand with the keyword "small carpet."
