Kumiko is a Japanese woodwork technique that goes back to the Asuka Era (8th century).Having developed over a long period of time, the word Kumiko refers to the sophisticated technique ofindividually fitting thinly slit wooden pieces to form patterns without the use of nails.It involves a number of detailed processes, including selection of the wood and splitting it into small thin pieces,then assembling the pieces to an accuracy of 0.1 mm, to form the design.This work is undertaken by highly skilled craftsmen whose passion for Kumiko,and knowledge of the traditional technique, has been passed down through generations.At Tanihata we manufacture Kumiko ramma that are compatible with modern structures, creating aesthetically pleasing spaces.Guided by the selected design and situation where the Kumiko ramma is to be installed, our craftsmen custom-make with precision.Tanihata’s products are supplied unpainted so that the soft touch, subtle change in hueand refreshing scent unique to natural wood, may be fully appreciated.
