Luxury Red Japanese Silk Kumihimo Cord Kyoto 8-Strand Braid 0.7–7mm 1M

In the heart of Kyoto, a city where history and artistry intertwine, artisans have preserved the ancient tradition of kumihimo – the Japanese art of braiding cords. Our Luxury Red Japanese Silk Kumihimo Cord carries this timeless craft into the present, blending cultural heritage with modern elegance. Each cord is carefully braided on a traditional machine by skilled Kyoto craftspeople. Using the 8-strand “Edouchi” braiding technique, the result is a cord with perfectly balanced patterns, exceptional durability, and a gentle softness that only pure silk can provide. The deep, vivid red is more than just a color. In Japanese culture, the “red thread” is a symbol of destiny, love, and connection, while the “red cord” represents protection and wishes. With every strand, this cord embodies a story of beauty, spirituality, and craftsmanship. 🌟 Perfect for Multiple Uses • Jewelry making (bracelets, necklaces, earrings, beading) • Kimono obi ties and other Japanese accessories • Macramé, textile crafts, and decorative knots • Gift wrapping or special interior accents 📏 Product Details • Sizes: 0.7mm / 1.0mm / 1.5mm / 2.0mm / 2.5mm / 3.0mm / 4.0mm / 5.0mm / 7.0mm • Material: 100% Pure Silk • Type: 8-Strand Edouchi braid (machine-braided by skilled artisans) • Length: Sold per meter (continuous lengths for multiple meters) • Origin: Kyoto, Japan ⸻ ✨ The Atelier Miyabi Story At Atelier Miyabi, we are dedicated to sharing the beauty of Japanese craftsmanship with the world.
