Braided Cords

Ryuta Fukuda

Ryuta Fukuda

Mr. Fukuda is the successor of his family’s business, which boasts a history stretching back 136 years. Tokyo braided cord has its origins in the 17th century, shaped over the years by both samurai society and the culture of the Edo townspeople. His goal is to perpetuate this unique blend of history and cultural background—infused with the spirit of the artisans—as the total art of braided cord. Working to achieve this, he is an enthusiastic revolutionary in the field of braided cord, reflected in such projects as high-end brand store decorating, and more.
