[For MICE and Groups] Japanese Fabric Flower-Making Experience

Make Japanese fabric flowers, or tsumami-saiku, a traditional Japanese craft dating back to the Edo period 

 

Tsumami-saiku, or fabric flower-making, is a handicraft that originated in the Edo period. Thin pieces of silk are cut into small rectangles which are then wrapped and folded to make floral or bird patterns.
Although craftsmen who still specialize in this traditional art are dwindling in number, tsumami-saiku has a history of over 100 years, and is recognized by the Tokyo metropolitan government as a traditional handicraft as a souvenir that represents Edo.
You can also create patterns that resemble camellias, which are a symbol of our hotel.
In the language of flowers, camellias represent understated beauty and unpretentious elegance.
Camellias, which originated in Japan, have been loved by Japanese people since time immemorial. We hope that you too will enjoy their delicate beauty.
