Hair Accessory that Brings Happiness - Kimono Scrunchie - Hair Accessories - Cotton Red

Product Description

<A unique beauty that brings you happiness> The material for this piece is kimono fabric with auspicious patterns, carefully selected from thousands of pieces stored away in chests. Each item is meticulously handcrafted with a wish for the happiness of the person who receives it. <A gift of Japanese tradition> We utilize kimono fabric, otherwise stored away, to create beautiful and charming items from small fabric scraps, honoring the adage from an elderly woman in Watari Town, Miyagi Prefecture: "Never discard cloth that can wrap three adzuki beans." These are also cherished as gifts for small tokens of appreciation or greetings. <An item that adds elegance to your appearance> This hair accessory complements kimonos and yukatas, as well as any other outfit, allowing you to express your individuality. It can be used as a retro-modern hair accessory, or even as an arm band or book band, proving useful to have on hand. <A symbol of good fortune: Auspicious patterns> These celebratory patterns are used as "symbols of good fortune" and are considered auspicious. Understanding the meanings of Japanese patterns connects you to the profound depth of Japanese culture, inherited from ancient times. <The joy of gazing and collecting> The kimono fabric featuring auspicious patterns is a joy to behold, bringing images of happiness just by looking at it. By collecting your favorite pieces, you can enjoy creating your own personal gallery. *Photos are for illustrative purposes only. Items are sold individually. [Material] Kimono fabric/Lining fabric: Cotton, etc. [Size] Inner diameter 4cm, Outer diameter 12.5cm <Let's contribute to clothing upcycling together> WATALIS has collected and remade over 12 tons of old kimono fabric to date. By choosing one of our creations, kimono fabrics that lay dormant in chests across the country find a new purpose. We operate with gratitude towards our customers who help us expand the cycle of upcycling. We introduce our regional resource upcycling efforts through a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgrpvHXTt6Q <Notes on purchasing> * As all items are handmade, please understand that each piece is unique, with slight variations in size, shape, and pattern. * In rare cases, if we obtain kimono fabric in excellent condition, multiple items may be produced from the same fabric. Please note that the pattern placement may differ slightly from the photo due to the cutting position of the fabric. * Please be aware that the color and texture may appear different from the actual product on your screen. If you have any concerns, please contact us or refrain from purchasing. * As much of the kimono fabric used as material is used and often lacks explicit labeling, the material may not be identifiable. We thoroughly inspect and process the fabric, including washing, before remaking. Please handle with care as some fabrics may fade or shrink when wet. * As these items are also sold on other sites, please forgive us if an item is out of stock.
