This unique tote bag is meticulously handcrafted using luxurious vintage Japanese silk (Seigen) and Obijime (silk cord), blending traditional artistry with modern functionality.
Design Highlights
- Gentle Pastel Pink Exterior: The outer fabric features a soft pastel pink hue adorned with delicate flowers and traditional Japanese wave patterns. It is a design that embodies both Japanese elegance and charm.
- Sophisticated Black Lining: The interior is lined with black silk featuring a subtle woven pattern. This creates a sharp contrast with the bright exterior and provides a premium feel every time you open the bag.
- Reclaimed Obijime Handle: The handle is made from a genuine "Obijime"—the decorative silk cord used to secure a kimono sash. The contrast between black and bright yellowish-green (Wakakusa-iro) is striking, offering the durability and smooth grip unique to high-quality silk. The length is adjustable.
