This stencil-dyed linen noren is handcrafted by Kiyoe Masao and his son. They specialize in dyeing with natural materials, primarily indigo, but this is their first piece featuring the soot-based ink used in traditional Japanese calligraphy.

The design is inspired by the Mingei movement, which elevates the dignity of humble, functional design found in everyday artisan craft over the superfluous and ornate.

The natural linen and dark sumi dye provide a pleasant and natural pairing. The design separates and rejoins as you pass through, or when a breeze blows by.

Kiyoe Junichi

Son of indigo artisan Kiyoe Masao, Kiyoe Junichi produces the sumi ink Noren Katazome. By using a dissolving stencil, he creates designs that reference the 20th century mingei movement.

Kiyoe Masao

Masao Kiyoe is a shibori-zome (Japanese tie-dye) craftsperson based in Kyoto, specializing in kusaki-zome—a traditional dyeing method using natural colors extracted from plants. Dyeing runs deep in his lineage, with relatives having dedicated generations to the art. Originally working in construction, he shifted paths after an accident and immersed himself in the world of natural dyes, tying (shibori) and dyeing (zome) techniques. For over 47 years, he has created textiles that reflect Japan’s seasons, nature, and heritage, all from his intimate workshop nestled near Kiyomizu Temple.
