Traditional wooden molds - Kashikigata

Traditional wooden molds, known as kashikigata, used in crafting Wasanbon are meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans—a technique passed down through generations. These craftsmen carve intricate designs into the wood, transforming a simple plank into a stunning mold. The artistry involved in creating these molds is truly remarkable. Using an array of chisels and tools, they fashion detailed patterns, including motifs such as cherry blossoms and Mt. Fuji, ensuring that Wasanbon captivates both the palate and the eye. 

Using these handcrafted wooden molds, Wasanbon sugar is delicately pressed into intricate shapes, resulting in sweets that are as visually stunning as they are flavorful. The versatility of the molds allows for an array of design choices, making every piece of Wasanbon a unique work of art. This harmonious blend of aesthetic beauty and refined taste makes Wasanbon an ideal gift or souvenir, offering a genuine taste of Japan's rich cultural heritage. 

In Kagawa and Tokushima Prefectures, the tradition of Wasanbon molds is struggling to survive, with artisans such as Mr. Ichihara dedicated to preserving this time-honored technique. However, the number of successors is dwindling, and Mr. Ichihara, one of just two remaining artisans in Japan, has been honored with the title of Traditional Craftsman.

A true turtleneck that retains a snug high neck.
Color: White, Size: X-Large
I've found this brand to have gotten better over the years as far as offering the American market what it needs in terms of realistic sizing. I only wish they'd realize that there are a lot of us who are long in the back and arms where my only choice is to go a size up and sacrifice a slim fit for sleeves that are long enough plus a back that doesn't go up past my waist just because I reach up for something, that and I like to be warm. So these are such nice quality turtlenecks that it's hard to complain about but maybe the company will read this. The snug neck stays up is plus number one since that's why I'm buying a full neck. They come with very nice weaves in the fabric, good enough for casual or formal wear. Finally the warmth you seek is there but I've worn them in what most would think isn't the right temp for a turtleneck. Also they have them in white! Yes, a lot of others just don't for reasons I can't fathom, and the pic you're seeing is accurate, these will form to your shape without being ridiculously thin material. Several washes later and they are as fine a garment as when I first wore them. I've only found one other brand that compares to these but it's much more expensive, COOFANDY is affordable in these times of expensive everything. Warm but also a lightweight shirt, I've gotten them really dirty with actual dirt and it washes out so well you'd never know it. Don't let my taking off one star stop you, try one yourself and you'll be coming back for more.
