Amano Kouya

Amano Kouya is an indigo dye studio founded in 1870, specialising in thread dyeing. Now led by fifth-generation maker Amano Hisashi, the workshop produces indigo-dyed threads, tenugui, and everyday indigo goods that quietly fit into daily life.

Each piece reflects generations of knowledge, where indigo is used not to stand out, but to bring depth, calm, and lasting beauty to the everyday.
