KINOKABAN Photon—In the Bright Sunlight—

The artist, who often looks up at the sky, says, “I feel as though the light appears in the form of tiny specks.”

These countless colors—

they may all be nameless, vanishing in an instant never to reappear.

A record of the “colors” that suddenly appeared one morning in the bright sunlight.

In the Random Dot series, after the base dyeing is complete, the artisan applies the colors that come to mind one by one with his fingers to finish the piece. These are truly one-of-a-kind works that cannot be replicated.

Because these KINOKABANs are dotted with so many colors, owners tell us they are surprisingly easy to coordinate with outfits—they serve as a focal point while blending in seamlessly, making them very versatile.

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.
