【Self-introduction】
I, Kyo Gold Leaf Oshitsunewaka, am in the business of attaching gold leaf to cultural properties in temples and shrines nationwide, as well as shrines and altars used for festivals.
It has been 28 years since I learned gold leaf stamping at a traditional craft university since I was a student.
Since I was a child, I have been interested in the traditional culture of Japan, such as Buddhist statues, festival shrines, and mountain bowls, and I entered this industry because I wanted to get a job that would allow me to be involved in the traditional techniques of Japan in the future.
Carving, painting, and applying foil are divided according to the field, and I am a craftsman who applies gold leaf, and I am called a "foil stamper".
The characteristic of gold leaf stamping is that a lacquer called raw lacquer is used as an adhesive to attach gold leaf, but this technique is a technique that has been passed down from the Nara period, and it is now one of the few professions.
[Reason for launching the brand]
The reason why I launched the brand this time is because I want you to know more about the technology of the foil stamper I am involved in! I want to convey the charm of gold leaf through products to convey more traditional Japan culture.
Buddhist altars, which are wonderful traditional crafts in Japan, are a comprehensive craft that brings together carvings, lacquer, gold leaf, coloring, etc., but unfortunately, the current situation is that the altars are being discarded one after another with the flow of the times.
From my standpoint as a foil stamper for Buddhist altars, I want more young people to know the charm of ancient traditional customs and traditional crafts by reviving crafts such as Buddhist altars that would otherwise be discarded, as well as traditional customs that are being lost, and creating products that can be used for today's lifestyles.
It was.
What are we doing?
The product concept of Kyokin Foil Oshitsunewaka is "Let's enjoy customs from ancient Japan with a modern lifestyle"
Are.
My motto is to create works based on ideas from the standpoint of a Buddhist altar foil stamper who is involved in traditional techniques.
【The charm of gold leaf】
It is said that gold leaf was already used in Egypt in Egypt for golden masks, coffins, ornaments, etc., and until the present day, it is the most beloved mineral of mankind, and it has been used as an object of worship in religion and as a symbol of wealth and happiness.
In Buddhism, it represents the world of paradise and pure land, and in Shintoism, it is also expressed as the guiding light of God.
In addition, during the Warring States period, it was also used as a symbol of power and a lucky charm, and it was also used for store signboards because it is said that "foil" is attached when gold leaf is applied.
[Commitment as a creator]
The gold leaf is the highest grade Kanazawa No. 1 color (pure gold ratio of 97.6%).
The feature of gold leaf stamping is that lacquer called raw lacquer is used as an adhesive and gold leaf is attached.
Raw lacquer is an environmentally friendly adhesive that has been used in Japan for a long time, and is also waterproof, insect-proof, and antiseptic.
The technique of applying gold leaf using raw lacquer is called "lacquer foil", a technique inherited from the Nara period, and it takes more than 10 years to master the technique, so it is now one of the few professions that has become one of the few professions.
Commitment to the product
The product is characterized by the fact that it is made with lacquer foil that has been manufactured by Buddhist altars since ancient times, using raw lacquer in the No. 1 color from Kanazawa.
The Buddha series, which is based on the work of Buddhist master Miura Yozan and is formed with a 3D printer and finished with gold leaf products using traditional techniques from ancient times, is loved as a healing figure that can be prayed to at any time.
