2009 Serizawa Calendar

Keisuke Serizawa 1895-1984 (living national treasure)

beloved artisan who was authorized as a living national treasure in 1956.

Keisuke Serizawa learned a lot about the method of BINGATA and stencil hand-dying in Okinawa. Afterwards, he perfected the real essence of designing stencil patterns. There are no cut corners or poor quality in his works. Though he always strove for the best work, he nevertheless hated extremely exaggerated work. He put emphasis on the ordinary. This is the greatest characteristic in his view of beauty and is the reason why he was one of the great leaders of the Mingei movement.

Egoyomi Calendar designed by Tokujiro Kojima@

These beautiful pictures designed by Tokujiro Kojima were calendar printed on washi (Japanese hand-made papers).@
There are no days of the week and numbers of the month in this calendar.@It shows 12 months
with the pictures of Japanese seasonal items and nature.@He passed away about 10 years ago.@
His original calendar dyed on linen fabrics is very expensive, about $2000 or more.@It's very hard to find it lately.@
Though this calendar is printed on washi, it would be enough enjoyable displaying it with frame.
