Future Solution 10th Anniversary. To commemorate Future Solution LX’s 10th anniversary and to share a few more of Japan’s unique gifts with the world. Inside the Tokirara no Tebako, we use the most intricate fabric in the world- the Nishijin textile.
.
Founded in 1688 under the patronage of the Honganji Temple, Nishijin textiles are distinguished by the special method of interweaving gold leaf thread with silk fiber, one strand at a time.
.
Making the Nishijin textiles from the silk strands and gold leaf threads is such a meticulous process that only four meters of fabric can be woven in a day. Using an intricate set of calculations, the weft is woven into a 150cm-wide, approximately 9,000 thread warp. A craftsperson pastes gold leaf onto paper and another craftsperson cuts the gold paper at several tenths of a millimeter to create the gold leaf thread, which is then woven in, creating an elegant look that radiates a mysterious glow depending on the angle, unlike that of any other fabric.
