Traditional beauty that adds glamour to everyday life
The horizontal tote bag measures 24 cm in height × 35 cm in width (24 cm in width at the bottom). The size is slightly larger than A4 size.
The gusset is 15 cm wide, so it can easily store not only wallets and pouches, but also plastic bottles and folding umbrellas.
It is large enough to fit a lunch box or my bottle, so it is also recommended as a lunch bag.
There is a mini pocket on the inside that is convenient for storing small items such as subscription holders and keys.
The opening has a metal button, making it difficult to see the contents and prevent them from popping out.
A tote bag that is useful not only for shopping, walking, and daily outings, but also for commuting to work and school, as well as for travel, and leisure.
It adds a little Japanese color to your daily outing.
Craftsmanship that highlights the charm of hand-dyeing
The tote bag is an original textile from Fuwa Market.
It is a traditional canvas fabric from the domestic canvas brand "Fuji Kinbai", and now it is carefully woven one by one using a precious shuttle loom.
The high-quality canvas fabrics are dyed by hand one by one by craftsmen at a dyeing factory in Kyoto.
It is attractive for its deep colors and unique textures using traditional techniques.
When you look at the close-up of the pattern, you can feel the delicate color overlap unique to hand-dyeing.
Subtle shades and bleeding enhance the texture unique to handwork, creating a unique beauty.
By carefully dyeing each plate, it creates a depth and warmth that cannot be expressed through simple printing.
The hand-dyed canvas fabric is finished by hand by craftsmen one by one. Each slightly different expression will create a special feeling just for you.
Please feel the charm of this texture and warmth created by the handiwork of craftsmen.
