Together through time

Persimmon juice dyeing is a traditional Japanese dyeing technique. Brushing the dye on the leather gives it a wood-like appearance. Carefully sewn by the craftsman it becomes a wallet with elegance. Aged through time and cherished, the wallet and its owner share a life long journey together.
