樹の鞄 星月夜 The Wooden Bag - Starry Night

夜空の向こうに広がる果てしない世界に昔から憧れがあります。

漆黒の闇の中にある光。星雲や銀河、その光の色に想いを馳せつくりました。

ベースは墨染め。内側はさらに深い黒漆を南宋にも重ねています。

本体、ハンドルともに、研ぎ出しながら光の色を描きました。

留め具にはタモ材の格子状に光輝く奇跡の杢目材を。深いブルーに黒漆で惑星のような質感を。

Story & Description

I have always felt a deep yearning for the boundless universe that stretches beyond the night sky—for the subtle light amidst the pitch darkness, and the vivid colors of distant nebulae and galaxies. This piece was created while reflecting on those cosmic hues.

The base is finished with traditional sumi ink dyeing. For the interior, multiple layers of deep black urushi lacquer have been painstakingly applied. Both the main body and the handle are carefully polished through a hand-burnishing process (togidashi) to evoke the luminous colors of the night sky.The clasp is crafted from rare, beautifully grained Japanese ash wood (tamo), shimmering in a lattice-like pattern. It features a deep blue accent overlaid with black urushi, giving it the mysterious texture of a distant planet.

Precautions for use

No special care is required for wooden bags. Wooden products develop a distinctive flavor as they are used, and we hope you will enjoy the changes that occur as you use them.

To ensure that you can use our products without worrying about rain stains, dirt, or color transfer to your clothes, we have applied a sufficient layer of urushi lacquer or coating agent. Please wipe it dry with a soft cloth when it gets wet from use on a rainy day. If it gets dirty, wipe with water. If stains cannot be removed, a diluted neutral detergent can be used.

Although the durability of the product has been carefully considered, it may be damaged by falling, impact, or rubbing due to its characteristics as a wooden product. Please handle with care. We recommend storing the product in a well-ventilated place out of direct sunlight. Please avoid storing the product under direct sunlight or in extremely high temperature and humidity for long periods of time, as this may cause the product to deteriorate, develop mold, or fade in color.

Properties of Urushi Lacquer and Precautions

This product is exquisitely finished by the urushi lacquer coating technique. The coating with urushi lacquer gives the product a deep texture and unique look. It is not only beautiful but also durable, but in rare cases, people who are sensitive to urushi may develop a rash. Since the lacquer film is firmly hardened, basically no lacquer rash will occur. However, we would like to ask for your understanding in advance in case of an emergency.
