「LinNe STUDIO」is an integrated facility with both a shop and foundry, serving as a place where you can experience the sound of orin.
We hope that through hands-on experiences and tours, visitors can learn about traditional techniques, discover their favourite sounds, and find new ways to incorporate orin into their lives.
We also offer customized services for custom-made sound and semi-custom kumihimo, tailored to your preference and intended use.
Whether it’s tuning the pitch or selecting the right tone and color, we’re happy to consult with you to create something that suits your needs.
※ Please note: opening days and hours vary. For details, please refer to reservation page.
This factory tour is an enjoyable experience for both adults and children. You can learn about the materials used to make orin and see the main production processes, such as mold making and shaping; you can also compare the different tones produced, and even get a go at breaking orin.
To take part please make a booking on the reservation page.
