What is pure silk?

Pure silk is a fabric made from 100% pure silk. Pure silk has a refined luster unique to silk and a fine texture. The silk thread used for pure silk is made from the cocoons produced by silkworms.

Its gentle feel is due to the fact that it is made from fibers whose components are similar to the proteins that make up human skin, making it the perfect material with a high affinity for the skin and less likely to cause an adverse reaction.

Bouton/Bokakuan is a space created by renovating a former craft store and residence in a corner of a shopping street in Nogata City, Fukuoka Prefecture. The banks of the Onga River, which flows through the center of the city, and Mount Fukuchi, which can be viewed from the riverbed, are very beautiful. The city center, where time flows peacefully, is a place where you can spend your time at a leisurely pace. I enjoy listening to people's stories, reading books, taking photos, and taking walks. I also cherish my time by tending to the garden at Bokakuan. Please come and have a nice chat and share some quiet time together.
