We also pay attention to the beauty when opened, and original Japanese paper is also used on the inside bottom. The color scheme, which is designed to balance the pattern on the front, gives a sophisticated impression.

Smooth opening and closing by delicate handwork. It feels comfortable every time you use it.

The elegant harmony created by the back design

The bottom is made of simple plain paper rather than hand-dyed Japanese paper.

While bringing out the beauty of the pattern, we have created a design that allows you to enjoy different expressions on the front and back.

The exquisite balance with the front side creates a more sophisticated impression.

Details that highlight the charm of hand-dyed

The hand-dyed Japanese paper used in this pen case is an original by Fuwa Market. Each piece is hand-finished by a yuzen washi dyer at a specialized factory in Kyoto.

The deep colors and unique textures are attractive using traditional techniques. When you look at the close-up of the pattern, you can see the delicate overlapping of colors that are unique to hand-dyed.

The subtle shades and bleeds enhance the texture unique to handwork, creating a unique beauty.

By carefully dyeing each plate, it creates depth and warmth that cannot be expressed in a simple print. 

The finish is carefully crafted down to the smallest detail to enhance the beauty of Japanese cuisine. Every time you use it, you can feel the meaning of Japan's beautiful craftsmanship and traditional patterns.

Please feel the charm of this texture and warmth created by the handiwork of craftsmen.
