Leather Pouch Reminiscent of A Plump Flower Bud

Story

The drawstring has been replaced with kumihimo, a traditional Japanese braided cord long used for obi ties and decorative accessories. By intricately intertwining multiple strands of thread, kumihimo is both supple and strong.

Dyed in a rich Deep Indigo, the pouch is accented with a shell button. The shell button's elegant luster beautifully enhances the color’s depth.

The hides are "tanned" to become leather, which is then made into a pure leather as a material. The "white tanned leather" used for Cohana's drawstring is a human- and eco-friendly leather made without using chemicals. Only vegetable tannin extracted from plants and natural materials are used in this process. Leather carefully tanned in this natural way becomes fine-textured and beautiful white leather, and can be dyed to a beautiful color. The leather is a little stiff at first, but it will become softer with use.。

Handling Precautions

• White tanned leather is a natural material and may have uneven coloring. Please enjoy it as a texture.
• As a natural material, each shell button has its own characteristic curve, and variations may occur in shape, color, thickness, and texture.
• Fiber scraps on the backside of the leather may peel off due to friction.
• Wetting with water or sweat may cause color fading or staining.
• Color may fade with friction.
• Deformation and mold in hot and humid environments or decoloration under the direct sunlight may occur. Please store in a ventilated shade.
• To remove dirt or stains, use a leather cleaner. Please be careful not to rub too hard,as this may cause the color to fade.
