About the product

[Conveying Japanese craftsmanship to the future through "tradition x humour"]
Onigawara (Japanese gargoyle) is a type of roof tile placed on traditional Japanese buildings' roofs. They have been placed on the roofs of buildings to wish the inhabitants happiness. In recent years, however, housing styles have changed in Japan, and the opportunities for Onigawara to play an active role have been drastically reduced. The artisans (Oni-shi) who have been making Onigawara want to pass on to the future the Japanese craftsmanship that has continued in Japan for more than 1,000 years. This product was produced with this in mind.
The Onigawara Tissue Case is a tissue case that commercialises the true playfulness of Oni-shi, who have been in business for more than 100 years. It is an unprecedented and crazy item in which a tissue is taken from the nose of an Onigawara (devil's face). We would be happy if the "tradition x humour" could make the viewer smile and feel a little happy. This item was born with this in mind.

[“Ibushi silver”, unique to Japanese roof tiles]
Ibushigawara is smoked in the final firing process, which forms a carbon film on the surface and gives it a silver colour. Because it is a 'silver colour that develops through smoking(ibushi)', the colour of these tiles is called 'ibushi-gin-iro (ibushi-silver-colour)'.
As the glaze does not have a water-repellent effect, areas stroked with bare hands gradually turn black, just like the ageing of leather products. The more one strokes it, the more it becomes textured, which is an attraction of the material not found in glazed ceramics.
See the image of two 'Onigawara tissue cases' at the bottom of the section. The below is new, and the top is this product that has been stroked daily throughout.

[Various uses]
This tissue case will become a hot topic when placed on tables or in bathrooms, not only in private homes but also in restaurants, inns and event facilities. Onigawara is originally meant to 'ward off evil and bring good luck', making it a perfect good-luck charm!

There are two designs: (1) a staring face, which is meant to ward off evil and evil spirits, and (2) a smiling face, which is meant to bring good luck. You can take out tissues from either the left or right nostrils.
*Photography cooperation: Izakaya Rin (Hekinan, Aichi Prefecture), leather workshop Keywest828 (Hekinan, Aichi Prefecture).

Specifications
Design: smiling, staring faces
Box: coloured paulownia box (production cooperation: Sashitada Co., Ltd.)
Colouring agent: water-based varnish for general woodwork (non-toluene/xylene paint, formaldehyde emission class F☆☆☆☆)
Onigawara: Sanshu Onigawara (fired clay, smoked silver-coloured pottery).
Joining method: screwed from inside the case.

Weight: approx. 1.6 kg

Notes
*Handle with care as it is a heavy object. Dropping it on your feet can cause injury.
*Tissues can be taken out through the nostrils, but they are no more practical than a naked box of tissues. Please note that we cannot accept any comments about the product being difficult to use.
*Please note that the manufacturer and seller are not responsible for any damage that may occur as a result of using the product.
*When using new tissues, please pull the first one out high before placing it in the case.
*Slight differences in weight and design may occur due to the nature of the product being hand-finished pottery. In addition, during the firing process, there may be minute cracks that do not pose a problem in terms of strength.
*Because of the material characteristics of ibushi-stained roof tiles, the demon face part will gradually darken when stroked with a bare hand. We hope you will enjoy the change in texture over time.

story-images

Onifuku is a group of artisans who have specialised in making only handmade Onigawara for over 100 years since its establishment in 1916 in Sanshu, Japan's largest tile production area. The company processes the entire process in-house, from kneading the clay to shaping, drying and firing the tiles. Notable roofing achievements include the Naritasan Shinsho-ji temple gate (1980), the Izumo Taisha ancestral hall (1985) and the Eiheiji Nagoya branch main hall (2016).

In recent years, the company has not limited itself to roofing materials alone but has also been exploring 'new developments adapted to modern lifestyles' using the inherited techniques of Onigawara production.

    Certainly Shisa was originally a guardian deity of good luck that was on the roof ^ ^
    One of the attractions of oxidized roof tiles is that they change over time like leather products. If you keep stroking the same part every day like Billiken at Tsutenkaku in Osaka, you will grow attached to it! !

    I want Japan to be a place where traditions never die out.

    Thank you for your support!
    In fact, the first prototype of the Onigawara tissue case was entirely made of Ibushi roof tiles.
    It weighs 4kg (laughs).
    Heavier than a newborn baby... As expected, it needed improvement, so we settled on the current "case part made of wood".

    Even if it's not a tissue case, I'm very happy to support you!
    I'll do my best ^^

    実は鬼瓦ティッシュケースの第一弾試作品は、ケース部分も全ていぶし瓦で製作しました。
    重さなんと4kg(笑)
    新生児より重い・・・・さすがに改良が必要ということで、現在の「ケース部分は木製」に落ち着きました。

    ティッシュケースでなくとも、応援いただきとても嬉しいです!
    頑張ります^^)

    I read the activity report.
    It's getting better and better.
    Actually, I was at a loss because I misunderstood that it was a wooden box, but I have no choice but to buy it.

    I am eagerly awaiting its arrival.
    Please keep doing a good job.

    (活動レポートを読ませて頂きました。
    着々と出来上がっていくのですね。
    実は、木箱だと、勘違いしていて迷っていたのですが、もう買うしかないですね。

    届くのを、心待ちしています。
    これからも、頑張ってください。)

    Thank you for reading our activity report!
    Our studio manufactures the demon mask part, and the wooden case part is outsourced to joinery craftsmen.
    The progress of the project will be distributed in activity reports as needed.

    We apologize for keeping you waiting until the delivery of the product, but thank you for your support.

    I was waiting for something like this.
    Please commercialize a combination of more practical items and Onigawara.
    For example, a removable knock-type ballpoint pen head.
