This listing is for a pair of Japanese Koma, a square edged wooden spool used in Japanese and other Oriental embroidery for holding thread under the correct tension. Commonly used for metallic thread that is not stitched in or for beads. These Koma are made to order from close-grained hardwoods such as cherry, maple and beech (the photos are cherry wood). Handmade in my workshop in the West Pennine Moors of Lancashire, I specialise in making rare and unusual tools for embroidery and other crafts. If you need a variation of this Koma for your specific work, let me know your requirements and I can alter the design. The 3 woods on the photo are from left - Cherry, Beech and Maple. I offer 3 different sizes depending on your needs, please see the photo. All sizes are approximate and if you are not sure which size to choose, B is by far the most popular and multi-purpose. Size A = 56mm long, 25mm to 30mm square narrowing to approx 12 to 15mm in the centre with a narrowed area of 30mm length Size B = 66mm long, 25mm to 30mm square narrowing to approx 12 to 15mm in the centre with a narrowed area of 40mm length ** Most Popular ** Size C = 70mm long, 25mm to 30mm square narrowing to approx 12 to 15mm in the centre with a narrowed area of 50mm length Fixed price postage to UK - Royal Mail 1st Class Sent by Royal Mail International Tracked for elsewhere
This is a free tutorial on making Japanese ornamental tops known as Sankakusui-Koma, Sankaku-Koma, Hishi-Koma, Hishi-Kazari in Japan, Dragonboat in China, or Berlingot in France. In Japan these ornaments symbolize good luck and best wishes. I think they will make perfect small gifts or additions to my gift and gift wrapping this year. As new special dyes and twists Anaito silk just came in, when I was in the middle of designing this new tutorial for these precious ornaments, I decided to play around with the new colors and they are featured here. I also did some in traditional Christmas colors. See photo below. Special Twists: left - Summer (Red, Blue and White Mix) with Solid KNK Anaito Color #11 Center - Winter (Grey, Navy, White Mix) with Solid KNK Anaito Color #4 Right - Autumn (Red, Blue, Yellow Mix) with Solid KNK Anaito Color #5 These komas are made by folding rectangular pieces of cardboard into a triangular by-pyramids and covering them by wrapping thread around the 3 dimensional shape. This involves a bit of origami, traditional Japanese thread craft, and just for fun an added tassel. This tutorial is separated in sections: Part 1. Tassel and Loop Part 2. Foundation Shape Part 3.

New York-based Rockwell Group, led by award-winning architect David Rockwell, has designed the recently-opened KOMA restaurant in Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. The new dining establishment by TAO Group replaces the former Mastercard Theatre space. The 762m² Japanese restaurant retains the theatre’s circular plan, which in turn becomes a recurring motif in the interior. “Our design inspiration for KOMA includes several touchstones from Japanese folklore and mythology,” says the design team. The name, which means spinning top in Japanese as well as being a female name, pays an ode to a playful character by the name of KOMA who is the focal character in the narrative. The palette is a range of oranges and blues and is moody and darker in feel and finishes, with warm lighting and pops of bright orange and copper. “For the FF&E, we incorporated details that embody Japanese design, such as joinery and floral motifs, but interpreted them in a modern way,” says the team. Guests enter KOMA from the Marina Bay Sands mall through a vestibule that is shared with the new Marquee Nightclub. While Rockwell Group did not design Marquee, the entry vestibule establishes a connection between the two venues. A protruding canopy improves […]
