Kyoto Jibari-shiki Lanterns
Historic Kyoto lantern maker "Kojima Shoten", was established during the Edo Kansei era (from 1789 to 1801), and is located near Tofukuji Temple in southeastern Kyoto, known for its picturesque scenic views along with its beautiful autumn leaves and the Honbo Garden. Dating back to when the family business was first established, Kojima Shoten has always committed its craft to the "jibari-shiki" lantern and is one of the few remaining "Kyoto jibari-shiki lantern" manufacturers that continues to use this age-old traditional method. Visvim has one on display as an installation piece during their seasonal exhibitions at the entrance of their showroom where the visual detail depicted receives an update every season. Additionally several of their store locations utilize different variations as their indoor light source. All of these chochins are made by Kojima Shoten.
