The Isa Pattern Research Institute creates innovative and delicate patterns using traditional techniques of katae-zome. In order to bring out the charm of these patterns, it is the first double-sided dyeing in Japan, jointly developed by skilled Kyoto craftsmen and Musubi. This process, in which the exact same pattern is dyed in different colors on the front and back, is extremely special and highly advanced among double-sided dyeing. All patterns are imbued with auspicious meanings, making them perfect for gifts. The bag version is also popular, and has been highly praised by customers both in Japan and abroad for its ability to be coordinated to take advantage of the color changes on the front and back. Taking advantage of the unique characteristics of double-sided dyeing, which is beautiful no matter which side you see, it can be used in a variety of ways.
