KOTOWAZA BAG - Hishimon (Diamond Geometry)

We have breathed new life into vintage kimonos that have been passed down for many years. The main feature of this bag is the gorgeous pattern of the kimono and the accompanying embroidered proverb. Each bag is made from kimono fabric, which has a different look and feel, and is carefully crafted to be a one-of-a-kind piece.

The theme this time is "One good deed a day." We've included a heartfelt message that will make you stand up just a little bit more every time you pick up the bag.

The handle is made of suede-like ribbon, and depending on how you tie it, you can enjoy it in three ways: as a handbag, shoulder bag, or shoulder bag.

The lining is made of high-quality polyester Japanese pattern fabric that will brighten your day every time you open it. It is surprisingly light and practical enough to fit A4 size documents. Add a touch of Japanese aesthetics to your everyday life.

At first glance, this pattern appears to be a modern graphic design, but it is actually a very sophisticated design based on the traditional Japanese "hishimon" diamond pattern.

The orderly arrangement of diamonds drawn with fine lines on a calm greige background creates an urban and intellectual atmosphere. The regularly repeated pattern gives the viewer a sense of "harmony" and "stability," and although it is a remake of Japanese clothing, it also goes well with Western clothing.

The greatest appeal of this bag is the vibrant pink embroidery that dances over the tranquil geometric pattern. The pink message stands out like a jewel against the chic background, breathing a "modern breath" into the classic Japanese material.

This understated yet unique pattern will blend in with any everyday scene and subtly express the owner's personal taste.
