Honmoku File (Traditional Japan) renowned for last year's introduction to Japan's traditional art has come back to London to represent "Kimusubi" this time.
Mizuhiki is the artistic craft made out of the paper strings made of Washi, a Japanese traditional handmade paper and its creativity comes in a wide variety of styles.
Just as in the western countries, giving a gift or greeting cards for celebration or special occasion needs a bit of personalization. The Japanese have used Mizuhiki as the final touch over the envelopes of letters or gift wrappings. It is handcrafted with delicate and detailed techniques.
Kaori Funaki, the Mizuhiki artist, has created her own brand "Kimusubi" using Mizuhiki stretched to wider designs suited for the modern lifestyle.
Here are some examples of the designs and their meanings.
Today, the brand of "Kimusubi" in Japan is drawing attention in every field such as TV, newspaper, magazine etc.
