With extremely dense weave, it has a very fine, moist texture and a thick, substantial feel. This is something that can only be
felt in high-quality materials such as haku-kinji. It is also clearly reflected in its appearance, with an elegant, refined sheen that is never gaudy. A simple bow tie of reliable quality will turn you into a sophisticated adult. It is suitable for any formal occasion, from royal events, award ceremonies, society gatherings, receptions, weddings, and concerts. It is a product we recommend with the greatest confidence and pride.
The haku-kinji used is woven in a small weaving workshop in Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi Prefecture, one of Japan's leading
silk fabric production areas. Fujiyoshida is a historic production center that dates back to the Heian period. This land, fed by spring water from Mount Fuji, has the clean water that is essential for good dyeing.
In the weaving process, Yamamoto's woven haku-kinji uses as many as 13,000 warp threads in a width of just 47 cm, and for the weft, 120-
denier yarn is double-twisted and used as an astonishing 240-denier thick yarn.
By weaving slowly on shuttle looms, the fabric traps air and develops a three-dimensional feel, and artisans constantly inspect it for any damage. Dyeing, yarn production, warping, and weaving are each carried out by skilled artisans for our customers, under strict quality control, with the goal of making the best products possible.
