*Welcome to PM to inquire if you can pre-order if sold out. If you have it, it will take about 1.5 months*
During this trip to Kyoto, I met many wonderful people and things.
In addition to allowing me to re-experience the taste of a good life, I also witnessed the thousand-year-old capital's emphasis on and creativity in traditional culture and craftsmanship. What caught my eye the most was the kiss lock bag made by a kimono craftsman himself. Mr. Nakamura, a shy and elegant man, has retired from the ranks of kimono craftsmen, but he still makes kiss lock bag designed with the kimono fabrics he loved all his life.
【High-grade Kimono Tsumugi Series】
The craftsman's lifelong spirit is fully demonstrated in the details and material selection. This model uses the rare 'Oshima Tsumugi'. This kimono fabric from Oshima Anmi in Japan is made by dyeing silk threads with mineral mud before weaving them into cloth. The workmanship is complicated, requiring twenty to thirty steps. Nowadays, only a few craftsmen are still producing it, which makes it increasingly rare. In Japan, it is used in the production of high-end kimonos.

The characteristic of "Oshima Tsumugi" is the restrained and charming low-saturation patterns, which are very pleasing to the eye and more suitable for modern daily wear. With a bag on your body, you will look retro and fashionable. Unlike the general fabric bags on the market with overly eye-catching and bright patterns, you don't have to worry about having the same bag as others. Even if it is a small bag accessory, if it is made of high-quality materials, you can get a glimpse of the owner's dressing taste. The teacher also reminded, "Please use it gently, the touch will become softer over time."

I can only say that people in Kyoto really use good things! No wonder Kyoto people are also proud of themselves. Thanks to the teacher for agreeing to make a batch for us. I have to be honest, compared with the various kiss lock bag out there, this pricing may not seem very friendly at first glance. At first, I was only attracted by its appearance and didn't care much about the high-end kimono fabric. I took it for granted that the gold detailing was so delicate. But only after I brought it back and actually used it did I understand the reason. Every time I open and close it, I can't help but admire it from the bottom of my heart, and the more I look at it, the more I like it. If you have the opportunity to receive one yourself, you will understand what a work of art-level kiss lock bag is, and it will definitely make you want to collect it again and again!
