This is the official website for The Ryugiya, or 流儀屋. This business exists to sell kimono in new ways, so that kimono can survive long into the future.
The meaning of the name of this business is complex. It is a composite of the Japanese word for "Style" or "Fashion" and "Shop". But oddly enough, together these characters make the word, "ritual". I've grown to love the ritual of getting dressed in kimono, So, I feel this is a very fitting name. :) But it sounds like the word for a dragon. The new logo was created by modifying an existing image of a dragon, editing it till it looked less scary and rugged, to looking more gentle, refined, and human. In both Chinese and Japanese culture, dragons are positive creatures that sometimes bless people with wealth and health. I hope The Ryugiya will be a blessing to everyone who purchases from it.
