Hikidashi Co., Ltd. is developing traditional handicrafts “Oshie Hakoita” and “Kiri Box” from Kasukabe City, Saitama Prefecture, and a new handcraft item “Oshiehakoita” created by the hands of each master.
As the first installment, the “Oshie box board” with the motif of Rilakkuma / Korilakkuma / Kiiroitori from the popular character “Rilakkuma” will be introduced in three lineups.
From May 1, 2020, reservations are accepted at the online store “Hikidashi Store”.
Traditional handicrafts “Oshiegogoita” and “Kiribako” in Kasukabe City, Saitama Prefecture, and the hands of each crafter have created new handcrafted items that live traditionally.
In a small paulownia box filled with craftsmanship, “Oshie” art carefully made by Oshie artist is stored.
As the first collaboration, the “Oshie box board” from the popular character “Rilakkuma” series is now available in three lineups.
Oshie is a three-dimensional expression by putting a cloth on cardboard and putting cotton on it. Each face of Rilakkuma, Korilakkuma, and Kiiroitori is carefully created by the hands of craftsmen.
The three-dimensional finish that Rilakkumas look into from the box is shaped by the work of an Oshie artist who requires skill.
The paulownia box has been designed so that the lid can be stored on the back by raising it.
In addition, when the lid is opened, the paulownia box is joined by “Tsumegumi” so that it looks like a frame that decorates Oshie art.
Each character is branded on the top of the lid.
Traditional small art Tsumugi small box (Oshiehakoita).

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
