Yonezawa Textile Direct Sales Store Origin
About 10 minutes from the Yonezawa Chuo Interchange off the Tohoku Chuo Expressway via National Route 121, this Yonezawa textiles shop is on the first floor of the Yonezawa Textiles History Museum, annexed to the Yoneori Kaikan hall. Yonezawa-ori weave, a simple yet warm hand-woven fabric, declared by Uesugi Yozan, as that which rebuilt the economy of the Uesugi dynasty. One can purchase obi ties, fabric, bags, fans, and other sundries such as business card cases at the museum shop. The iridescent neko-jacquard shawl, designed with a cat-pattern that changes colors depending on its angle, was even featured on television and was selected as a thank you-gift item for hometown tax payers.
