What is chirimen?
Chirimen is a traditional Japanese woven fabric. Unlike regular cloth, it uses twisted (braided) threads intentionally shrunk to create a surface with unevenness.
It has a good texture and a gentle feel, and is widely used as fabric for traditional Japanese clothing.
Chirimen exudes a sense of luxury and a calm atmosphere, and is often used not only for kimono but also for miscellaneous goods such as furoshiki, kinchaku, covers for goshuincho, Japanese accessories, and increasingly for Buddhist altar items like juzu bags and fukusa.

Are you prepared for Obon?
Obon is a festival to welcome the spirits of ancestors and close family members who have passed away into this world. It begins with the 'Mukaebi' (welcoming fire) to receive the spirits and ends with the 'Okuribi' (sending fire) to send them off.
In households, Bon lanterns are arranged as Mukaebi and Okuribi to honor the spirits of ancestors and deceased family members. Since it is the time once a year when ancestors return, do your best to offer warm hospitality within your means.
Traditionally,
White lanterns for the new Obonwere prepared by the family of the deceased, and otherBon lanterns with designs (used annually)were generally prepared by relatives and acquaintances. However, due to recent changes in living environments, the way of decorating has shifted from Buddhist altar rooms to living rooms and other spaces to suit each household, with the family of the deceasedpreparing all lanterns and Bon supplies, while relatives and acquaintances tend to prepare offerings (cash, incense, etc.).Furthermore, the timing to start decorating varies by household. Although the main decoration period is from the 13th (the first day of Obon, the welcoming Obon) to the 16th (the final day), many start gradually in the Obon month (July or August) to avoid rushing on the day itself.Hasegawa responds to various requests regarding Obon offerings and memorial services.
また、飾り始めるタイミングもご家庭ごとに異なります。お盆初日(迎え盆)の13日から最終日の16日までの4日間を中心に飾るのですが、当日に飾り付けを始めるのは慌ただしくなってしまうため、お盆月(7月か8月)に入った時点で少しずつ飾り付けを始めておく方も多くいらっしゃいます。
はせがわはお盆のご供養に関しても、様々なご要望に寄り添いお応えします。
