A bag for carrying miscellaneous items. There is a theory that this name was given because it resembles the bag behind the portrait of Takeda Shingen, but this is unclear. The bag is made by surrounding the periphery of a square or rectangular bottom board with rags of fabric and tying a thick braided cord around the opening. It was made in 1891 (Meiji 24) with patterned weaving and was originally used as a more convenient way to carry miscellaneous items than a furoshiki (wrapping cloth), but in 1897 it became popular as a more convenient way to match Japanese clothing than a leather handbag. Since this bag can hold everything, it was also called a gasai bag. When it was made smaller and had a woven basket attached to the bottom, it was called a Kago Shingen. However, it later fell into decline due to the rise of baskets, trunks, and suitcases.

雑貨を入れる袋物。武田信玄の肖像画の背後にある袋物に似ているところから、この名がついたという説があるが、判然としない。方形、長方形の底板の周囲を織物の裂(きれ)で囲み、口の部分に太い組紐(くみひも)を通して結んで袋物としたものである。1891年(明治24)に紋織でつくられ、風呂敷(ふろしき)より便利な雑貨入れとして用いられたのに始まり、革製の手提げ鞄(かばん)よりも、和装にあう便利なものとして、97年に入ると流行した。この袋はいっさいがっさい入るところから、合財袋ともいわれた。さらにこれを小ぶりにつくり、底に編み籠(かご)をつけたものは籠信玄といった。しかし、のちにバスケット、トランク、スーツケースに追われて衰退してしまった。 [遠藤 武] [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
