With the development of architectural styles, they were also used as partitions between residences. The word "Sudare" (traditional Japanese blinds)appears in numerous references in The Pillow Book and The Tale of Genji (The Tale of Genji), which depict scenes in which a bamboo blind is used to decorate a room according to the seasonal changes in atmosphere. Also, scenes in which men and women of the Heian nobility observe the opposite sex through a bamboo blind. Bamboo, the main material used for the "Sudare," has been considered a spiritual plant since ancient times as it is believed to possess mysterious spiritual powers such as amazing growth, vitality, and the ability to ward off evil spirits. Because of this, the use of bamboo for the masses was prohibited until the Edo period (1603-1867), and even the craftsmen who made them were strictly distinguished from each other. ▶Contact: contact@suigenkyo.com © 2022 Suigenkyo Ltd.
