<\/a><\/p>\r\nSedge work are made according to the Chinese zodiac signs of the New Year. This year, the motif is “dragon” and the design is a rising dragon, which has never been seen before.<\/p>\r\n
The work is being done by the Hiramaru sedge craft preservation society, a non-profit organization. The work began in September and is now in its peak season.<\/p>\r\n Work in progress<\/strong><\/p>\r\n Hiramaru Sugezaiku Preservation Society Sugezaiku has been made by farmers in the Hiramaru area since 1958 as a source of winter income.<\/p>\r\n In the 1960s, when it was at its peak, there were about 200 makers, but due to the aging of the workforce, the preservation society took over eight years ago.<\/p>\r\n The preservation society keeps the tradition alive while adding new arrangements every year. The ascending dragon is one such example.<\/p>\r\n Hiramaru sedge work preservation society All sedge work is made to order and priced at 22,000 yen per piece, including shipping and tax.<\/p>\r\n Receive a 1,000 yen discount if you pick it up at the museum located in Itakura-ward, Joetsu City.<\/p>\r\n Sugezaiku Reservation<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/a><\/p>\r\n
\r\nThere has been a lot of gloomy news in the past few years. I hope people will enjoy watching the rising dragon.<\/p>\r\n<\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/a><\/p>\r\n<\/a><\/p>\r\n
\r\nEvery year we make something different. It is a waste of New Year’s ornaments. I want them to be displayed for a whole year so that people will realize that this year is the year of the dragon.
