Japanese Tote Bag Purse Chirimen Red Floral Crepe Silk Kimono Fabric Kyoto

This purse is made from chirimen crepe silk kimono fabric. The fabric is new, made from left over fabric from kimono creation. This bright red pattern features a dense komon style floral design. I think the handles are imitation leather. The bag measures 6.5" x 7.5" plus the handles. I have added a removable champagne colored cord strap that clips on and a purse charm/keychain of a handmade tassel and wooden beads. When last in Kyoto a shop was closing not too far from Nishiki market. The person who made the purses has long retired and they were selling off what was left. I picked up several purses (more than 50 actually- oops) because the craftmanship was incredible (check out my shop if you want to see more!). The pictures don't do it justice. I brought back lots of items from Japan on my last trip (two checked bags each for free x 3 people... it was something) and I have lots more kimonos, kanzashi, obis, and purses/bags that I'll be listing as I get to them. Feel free to let me know what you are looking for and I'm happy to help if I can.
