Our creations,
a source of pride for our customers.
Since our founding in 1950, we have been dedicated to producing the highest quality flags, noren, happi coats, and banners in Kyoto.
The products we create, such as flags, noren, happi coats, and banners, serve as symbols for our customers. At times, they carry the weight of history and express hope for the future. We believe these items are imbued with the emotions and aspirations of our clients.
Given that we are entrusted with such important products, we believe it is our mission to craft one-of-a-kind items with meticulous attention to detail.
When “emotions” take shape through traditional craftsmanship, they become a source of “pride” for our customers, inspiring those who see them. This inspiration has the power to generate great energy.
We have been committed to blending the traditional techniques cultivated in Kyoto with a fresh perspective, using carefully selected materials to bring our customers’ visions to life.
With the belief in “co-creating our customers’ pride,” we strive daily to embrace what is good while never forgetting the essence of dyeing, the pinnacle of Japanese artistry, and the dedication of our artisans. We are dedicated to creating products that inspire and move people.
This, we believe, is what KatouKen Flag Shop must do to protect and promote Japanese culture.
Product
Flag
What a flag represents is the symbol, pride, and passion of our customers, adding grandeur and splendor to ceremonies, festivals, and celebrations.
Noren
Nowadays, noren serve as a signboard for shops and play a crucial role in creating the atmosphere of the establishment.
Happi
To create garments that add color to your special day and allow you to work with pride, we carefully select the fabric, dyeing method, and artisans according to the design and purpose.
Works
Craftsmanship
Products such as flags, noren, happi coats, hanten, and banners can take on various textures even with the same design, depending on the type of fabric and the dyeing or embroidery techniques used.
As a result, even if a product is made according to the design, it may sometimes differ from the image initially envisioned.
At our shop, we do not limit our suggestions to specific fabrics or production methods. Instead, we select the appropriate fabric, dyeing, and embroidery techniques necessary to express the design created together with our customers, and the most skilled artisans bring these products to life.
We then carefully finish the product in our shop and deliver it in the highest quality.
We strive daily to continue building on the trust we have earned from our customers by ensuring that every detail is realized in the final product.
Moreover, since we are creating products filled with our customers’ thoughts and emotions, we will handle each request with care, aiming to make you feel glad you chose KatouKen Flag Shop.
