Traditions of Japan

Naoe Kanetsugu

admin — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 08:01:32 +0000

Naoe Kanetsugu became the most famous military commander last year in Japan. Because the reason is because the history drama which made him a chief character became popular.

His another popular reason will be because a sentence of “愛” was decorated by a Kabuto.

When “愛” translates it literally for English, call it “love”. But this meaning does not seem to be a meaning called “love” modern somehow or other. It seems to be thought that there is this when it decorated Ares called Ragaraja.

He is the military commander who became known as the staff officer who served Uesugi Kagekatsu in the times of the war of 16-17 Japanese centuries.

We sell an image replica model of his Kabuto and his Katana soon to praise his achievement.

In Japan, liquor to drink at the time of dinner is called “Banshaku”.

The people liking liquor want to go in Izakaya almost every day, but then money does not continue. Therefore it is often that they enjoy liquor and foods at home.

Japanese many middle age men like Banshaku. . . It may be said that time when they eat a dish in accord with liquor and it is time of the supreme bliss.

It is said that the Japanese liking to drink tends to make cooking.

The reason is simple. . . They eat a delicious thing and want to drink delicious liquor.

They want to spend happy time in Bannshaku. Therefore the person who sometimes really runs Izakaya appears. Such people are strict in a kind of the liquor and a kind of the tableware.

However, it is to make a good atmosphere that they think most momentously. we think that this way of thinking becomes the source of Izakaya.

Izakaya

Oh, we were not able to update this blog on the weekend. . . Though, in fact, we wanted to go out for an evening drink, as for us, it was not possible for it for the next new goods.

Therefore, we talk about the Japanese bar restaurant this time…

Well, there is a Japanese-style bar restaurant called ”Izakaya” in Japan. They treat us with the Japanese living room style that can be relaxed. It is space called ” Zashiki “. Therefore I drink liquor with a friend, and we enjoy it.

In Japan, the home party is not so prosperous. However, we go in Izakaya and sometimes perform a party called “Enkai”. We perform Enkai with the fellow worker of the company. Or we perform with our friend.

Izakaya cares about tableware. The most use the ceramics of a traditional style made in Japan. It pleases us very much.

Space in Izakaya and the tableware are important items deciding the reputation of the Izakaya restaurant like taste of the cooking.

We sell such a tableware soon. We are glad when if you come to our shop page to watch it!

Japanese towel

admin — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 08:32:42 +0000

The city called Japanese Imabari prospered as a production base of the Japanese-style towel in the Edo era about 350 years ago.

Therefore, the Japanese towel industry has long tradition and reliable technology. And the towel made with Imabari is excellent so that the Hollywood star uses it habitually.

On the other hand, Japan has the production base of another big towel. It is an area called Senshu in Osaka.

Senshu is famous by producing superior towels for technology from 1887.

About blotting paper

admin — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 12:31:43 +0000

We introduced the towel set which a long-established store made of Kyoto.

blotting paper is set in this towel. We explain blotting paper.

This blotting paper can absorb your facial oil. You can use this paper directly on the area that you think has excess oil: your nose, forehead and cheeks. What you need to do is just press the paper with your fingers softly on the area that you want to get rid of the excess oil and let it sit for seconds. You will see the paper is absorbing the unwanted oil instantly.

You can use this blotting paper even when you have make-up on. By using this paper, you can minimize the facial oil causing the shininess on your face. So you don’t need to reapply foundation so many times to “conceal” the oily area.

Originally blotting paper was an etiquette tool of a Japanese traditional woman. And many European and American women use blotting paper now, too.
