Kinchaku Basket Bag, Noto Ed.
Celebrate the artistry, resilience, and timeless beauty of Japanese craftsmanship with this stunning Kinchaku Basket Bag. Designed with a woven basket base and a soft fabric upper, it’s versatile enough to hold your crafting essentials, darning tools, or to carry as a unique handbag for any occasion.
The Noto Edition features the exquisite Noto Jofu linen from Kanazawa, Japan—a fabric woven with traditions dating back nearly 2,000 years. This remarkable linen, crafted from ramie instead of typical flax, is celebrated for its sheer, lightweight texture, delicate hand-dyeing, and intricate ikat patterns. The fabric is handwoven using traditional methods, and you can feel the fine quality of the fabric, born from careful craftsmanship. The coarse weave density of handwoven fabric, which is not possible with machine weaving, creates a sense of transparency that is likened to the "wings of a cicada."
The fabrics used to make this edition of bags have been upcycled from kimonos.
Dimensions: 8" x 5" x 9" (20.3cm x 12.7cm x 22.8cm)
