<Ishikawa Shigyo’s Initiatives for the 2025 Year of the Snake>
■We use a high-quality whitewood base. Washi and wood pair beautifully, enhancing product appeal
■Introducing our Twelve Zodiac Ornaments: The popular “KoroKoro 12 Chinese Zodiac Series,” earthen zodiac figures, hanging ornaments, etc. new each year
■Upgraded best-sellers: Hamaya (lucky arrows), Dorei clay bells, parent-child mobile ornaments, and Washi KoroKoro roly-poly figurines.
We’ve expanded the “shimenawa hanging decoration” line with stand options. Choose from single items, with stands, or a stand + figurine set.
■Renewed Kagami mochi. New compact versions.
We added new parts like kadomatsu pine and Ise ebi lobster. We also offer versions with a luxurious paulownia wooden box that doubles as both storage and base.
Because Kagami mochi made of Washi is not perishable, it remains popular every year.
■New materials added: We now offer earthenware items and glass pieces.
We can provide wholesale pricing and product photos. Please contact us for details.

[Our Recommended Picks for Hina Dolls 2025!]
■For 2025, we created large and medium-size sets like three-tier and two-tier dolls using our advanced “handwork by Washi craftsmen.”
■They feature a high-quality whitewood platform, an “original Hina stand” by Ishikawa Shigyo, for both three-tier and two-tier setups.
■We developed and designed these unique Hina stands in-house, through multiple trials, to achieve a beautiful finish.
■Our “Yu” doll is especially noteworthy, refined through years of trial and error, presenting a visually stunning effect. It’s compact yet one of our larger sizes.
■We named each series “Yu,” “Rin,” “Tsumugi,” and a glass version “Midori.”
■All are Ishikawa Shigyo originals, designed to fit modern lifestyles—compact and suitable for either Japanese or Western-style interiors.
■We also offer “hands-on” experience with a “do-it-yourself kit” fostering the “experience economy.”
These workshop-friendly kits emerged from ideas by end-users of all ages, letting them enjoy the process with minimal craft skills. They are frequently used at events and workshops.
■Long-standing favorites: Our shimenawa hanging decorations, mobile dolls, and handcrafted beanbag dolls remain popular, with both new and classic designs available.
■Please see our separate product profiles for more details, perfect for your promotions.
[Boys’ Festival 2025 Recommendations!]
◆A luxurious, brilliantly patterned Mino Washi kabuto (samurai helmet) decoration paired with an original stylish chirimen-fabric Koinobori carp streamer.
Today’s customers want to display both a kabuto and carp streamers as a single set in a compact format.
◆Our Mino Washi kabuto and carp streamers can be displayed together or separately. Each includes a sophisticated whitewood base.
◆Mino Washi kabuto helmets capture vivid, intricate designs impossible to replicate with fabric.
Choose from “shira nami (waves),” “dot gold,” “shira sakura,” “shira nami-black,” “shira nami-gold,” or “yuzen gold.”
Your choice of crest style: “long crest,” “large crest,” or “crescent shape.”
Carp streamer ornaments come in “shira” or “color” varieties.
◆We also have popular versions with a paulownia wood box, whitewood base, etc. to meet diverse needs.
◆“Hands-on” experience is possible with our do-it-yourself kits
Our craft kits are popular across all ages, suitable for easy fun. They are also widely used for workshops and events.
◆Popular Items
Every year, we feature our best-selling Boys’ Festival papier-mâché dolls, shimenawa hanging ornaments, mobile dolls, and handmade beanbag dolls—from new offerings to long-selling staples.

Ishikawa Shigyo’s Original Hand-Dyed Mino Washi Series – Highly Recommended!
━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…━…
We’ve produced this lineup using Mino Washi, a tradition spanning 1,300 years, and employing Kyoto craftsmen who hand-dye each color separately. It’s a masterpiece of Japanese heritage perfect for “hand-dyed Mino Washi crafts,” “unique Japanese souvenirs,” and “DIY papercraft enthusiasts.”
It’s a big hit in our retail shop!
We keep adding new patterns to our Mino Washi Yuzen-dyed papers!
Customer feedback includes:
“So beautiful!” “It looks so high-end!” “The colors, texture, and thickness are perfect!”
Its uses are limitless—book covers, small boxes, accessories, folding screens, backgrounds, or various crafts, displays, and decorations.
Our authentic Mino Washi is known for its lightweight durability,
and thanks to multi-colored hand-dyeing with dedicated stencils for each hue, it achieves a dazzling vibrancy textile cannot replicate.
We rely on skilled artisans who carefully brush each color by hand.
These cherished processes, from washi-making to dyeing, are united by expert craftsmanship, culminating in a truly artistic piece of traditional Japanese culture.
It’s thin, lightweight, and strong.
With its variety of vivid patterns, it’s perfect for gifts, crafts, interior design, or store displays.
We can supply from as few as one sheet. Simply let us know which pattern number you need.
We can also produce custom patterns if desired.

Message from the Editor, Sato’s Castle
Thank you as always for your support.
I’m Sato, also known as “Dad Santa.”
I’ve decided on this year’s Christmas gifts for my kids!
They’re tablets!!
Although my official excuse is to help them watch videos of wrestling or breaking dance practice,
I suspect that justification will soon go out the window.
