Dressing the space with sheer silk and transparent glass.
In Kyoto's Muromachi, the kimono white fabric brand "Ito Kou" has combined years of cultivated sensibility and the skills of traditional craftsmen with industrial technology, resulting in the creation of the decorative material "silk glass." We propose the beauty of thin silk that allows light to pass through for modern spaces. By using laminated glass with functions such as shatter resistance and UV protection, we maintain the aesthetic of silk while revealing its unique transparency. The sparkle of embroidery threads, delicate weaving, and the craftsmanship of gold leaf and dyeing create a genuine presence. We can offer tailored proposals and material processing for commercial facilities, accommodation doors, partitions, light walls, custom furniture doors and shelves, tabletops, and residential fittings, depending on the purpose and use. As a long-established white fabric company, we propose special attention to detail from in-house designers and the dyeing and gold leaf craftsmanship by traditional artisans. Not only can you choose the fabric and patterns, but we also offer special processing for glass, allowing you to adopt solutions tailored to each project. Please select the thickness, type, and processing method of the glass according to your specific needs.

Company information
Since its founding in 1931, we have been a Japanese silk white fabric brand that is particular about quality. Currently, we are engaged in efforts to preserve Japanese silk by collaborating with sericulture farmers to produce pure domestically produced cocoons and raw silk, which now account for less than 1% of the distribution volume in Japan. In our dedication to silk and kimono, we have cultivated a sensitivity and appreciation for culture, and we are expanding the applications of silk into new fields through material planning and development. We propose Japan's delicate and refined sensibility as spatial design materials, themed around "transparency," "reflection," and "layering."
