Japanese traditional dyeing technique meets Kyocera's proprietary opal technology to create new colorful scarf to represent Kyoto
KYOTO, Japan, Nov 15 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Kyocera Corporation (NYSE:KYO)(TOKYO:6971) announced that its proprietary synthetic opal material, "Kyoto Opal," is being utilized in a textile for the first time. As part of the Hashiru Nippon-Ichi, a program promoting Japanese souvenirs, the "Kyoto Playful Opal Color Hand-Printed Scarf" was selected for the "Old Capitals: Kyoto and Nara" project. The program is developed by the JR-West Group and Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten, a 300-year old company manufacturing ramie cloth in Nara Prefecture. The new scarf was launched last month and will be available until late-February on the Sanyo Shinkansen train and "JAPANSQUARE," an online store delivering Japan-made items around the world. The opal material sparkles in seven colors depending on the angle, with the white and pink base appearing in different lights. The new scarf integrates Kyocera's fine ceramic technology with Japanese traditional dyeing techniques to provide a special souvenir for visitors to Japan.
