Japanese Tote Bag Purse Kimono Black Fabric Kyoto Sueded Chirimen Silk

This bag is made from kimono fabric for the top trim. The fabric is new, made from left over fabric from kimono creation. It zips closed and the outside pocket snaps closed. The top trim is chirimen silk and the bottom is a sueded fabric. The strap is a cord with wooden beads at the ends. It has a black bamboo and sakura pattern and lined in burnt orange. I have also added a handmade purse charm, with a tassel and wooden beads. The bag measures 8" x 10". 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 x 3 people... it was something) and I have lots more kimonos, kanzashi, obis (I have a couple of orange ones that go great with this kimono!), 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.
