Native Crafts Tote Bag Medium

The inspiration for the series came from the ancient crafts that our brand owner, Fukaya, saw at a museum. In an age without machines or electricity, people poured their passion and effort into creating beautiful forms. Struck by their overwhelming presence, this collection was born from the desire to "give form to the power of handwork."

Each piece of carefully selected leather is carefully cut, and then edge treatment is applied to create a beautiful, smooth cross section. Next, holes are drilled into the parts, and they are braided together with thinly cut leather cords. All of these processes are completed by hand by our artisans. This is a tribute to our predecessors who poured their hearts and souls into craftsmanship long ago, and to carry on that spirit and continue it into the future.

This tote bag is a representative example of the Native Crafts series, combining sophistication and craftsmanship. While seemingly simple at first glance, the design is punctuated by attention to detail. From the front, the beautiful silhouette, stripped of all unnecessary elements, stands out, while from the side or diagonal, the artisan's handcrafted wavy stitching adds an elegant accent. The exquisite balance created by this contrast elevates the bag to a timeless allure. The material is grained leather (bull leather), which is durable and scratch-resistant, yet gives an elegant impression. This bag blends into your everyday life while still emanating a subtle presence.
