The Enju series is a decorative interior and living product made with kumikozaiku woodwork joinery technique featuring engi (good luck) kumiko. Kawashima Tategu, a furniture fitting maker founded 88 years ago, values and protects the history of Japan’s traditional fittings and kumiko techniques, which involves intricate works of cutting, scraping, splitting, milling, bending and fitting woods. The company continues to develop and pass on the crafts of artisans. The history of furniture fitting techniques in Japan can be traced back to the Asuka period (600-700 A.D.), when Horyuji Temple’s Kondo (main hall) was constructed. The hall’s door is the oldest wooden fitting in existence, and the kumiko technique used in its construction has been passed down through history by manufacturers. Kumikozaiku technique is a wood joinery method that does not use nails, and involves Japan’s finest woodworking technique in which thin lumber is hand scraped by artisans at the precision level of 0.01 mm. The geometric patten designs represent various luck bestowing signs such as warding off evil and making wishes. The Enju series employs kumiko techniques only possible with the handiwork of skilled fitting artisans, and brings richness into the lives of its users with the positive powers of kumiko as a novel craftwork brand that adds peace and comfort into everyday life through the Japanese spirit.
