OHMI CHIJIMI　ORIGINAL
MIZEN BLUE ~SHO~

OHMI CHIJIMI　

Since the Muromachi period, the Higashi-Omi region of Shiga Prefecture has been producing hemp textiles such as Omi Jofu,
flourishing as one of Japan's leading production areas,
especially during the Edo period under the patronage of the Hikone domain, even serving as tributes to the Shogunate.

The key to finishing the hemp textiles woven in the fertile climate of the Omi Basin is the 'chijimi processing'.
Omi Chijimi is uniquely finished by artisans who knead the fabric,
creating its distinctive textured 'shibo' ridges, which contribute to Omi Chijimi’s refreshing feel.
