千總本店

Chiso began in 1555 as a dealer in Buddhist vestments and ceremonial dress in Karasuma-Sanjo. In the Meiji era it asked Japanese painters to draw the under-designs for its yuzen dyeing, a turn that became the starting point of Chiso yuzen — the way today's scarves and coloured papers are patterned. The zodiac yuzen paper, sold each year and made one by one by stencil dyeing, costs ¥3,960 including tax, the least expensive genuine yuzen in the shop; the Hyakuyo Botan scarf costs ¥60,500.
