The Intersection of Traditional Textiles and Snoopy Design: A New Era by Ryumura

A New Wave of Japanese Tradition: Snoopy by Ryumura Textiles

Ryumura Textile, a distinguished art textile manufacturer with over 130 years of history based in Kyoto, Japan, is set to unveil its latest collection featuring the beloved Snoopy character from the iconic PEANUTS comic. This new venture begins on September 10, 2025, aligning with the 75th anniversary of PEANUTS and promises to beautifully meld traditional Japanese artistry with contemporary charm.

This collaboration showcases the skill and aesthetic of Ryumura Textile, renowned for its dedication to preserving ancient techniques while introducing innovative products that resonate with modern lifestyles. The PEANUTS theme brings Snoopy into the focus, offering a fresh perspective on traditional Japanese wares. Among the product lineup are exquisite items such as high-quality accessories and everyday goods, each designed with the cheerful spirit of Snoopy.

Highlighted products include various sizes of fukusa (traditional Japanese wrapping cloths), which are not just functional for tea ceremonies but also serve as elegant accents in home decor. Additionally, the collection features pouches, wallets, card cases, and stationery items, all impeccably crafted from original Ryumura textiles, ensuring that each piece strikes a balance between beauty and practicality.

The designs smartly incorporate classic Japanese patterns like seigaiha (waves) and karakusa (arabesque), seamlessly blending them with Snoopy's playful imagery. This artistic approach allows for a three-dimensional effect that enhances the deep colors of the fabric, exemplifying the synergy between Ryumura’s textile tradition and Snoopy’s whimsical world. The resulting collection is branded as “Cute × Beautiful,” capturing the essence of both worlds.

Ryumura Textile has carefully curated this assortment to cater to everyone who loves charming items, character merchandise, or who wishes to embrace traditional crafts in a contemporary way.
