『Kaikado』The Kyoto Craftsmanship in Six Generations |『開化堂』京都六代匠艺 | AGNES' SELECT

Описание: 1875年，在明治维新的风潮下， 日本大学者福泽谕吉在『文明论之概略』一书中首次将『Civilization』翻译作『文明开化』。 同年，京都下京区，使用时髦的，不久前才英国流入日本的锡（English: Tin; 日語：賦力）作为材料的茶罐铺子『开化堂』开业了。

2019年，AGNES’SELECT探访了144年历史的开化堂，和家族的六代目八木隆裕进行了一次有趣的深度谈话。

访谈内容稍后会在官网 agneselect.com 和AGNES SELECT的Youtube主页发表，敬请关注。

In 1875, Under the wave of the Meiji Restoration (明治維新 | Meiji Ishin，also known as the Meiji Renovation), a Japanese intellectual Fukuzawa Yukichi (福澤 諭吉) first translated the word 『Civilization』 into 『Bunmei Kaika』 (文明開化) in his book 『An Outline of a Theory of Civilization 』(『文明論之概略』）. The same year, a tea canister shop named 『Kaikado』 (開化堂) opened its door for business. Kaikado uses tin, the imported metal from England, as the material for tea caddy making; it was considered fashionable at that time.

2019, AGNES’ SELECT visited Kaikado in Kyoto, Japan. We had an intriguing interview with Takahiro Yagi (八木隆裕）, the sixth generation of this 144-year-old tea caddy house. The interview content will be released on AGNES’ SELECT official website（agneselect.com）and on our Youtube channel.

Please stay tuned. Cheers!
