We have added new "Sukiya-bukuro" pouches. A "Sukiya-bukuro" is originally a small one button pouch for carrying Japanese tea ceremony items such as a handkerchief, sensu folding fan and paper napkins. However, Sukiya-bukuro can be a fashionable bag for caring small items.
These Sukiya-bukuro pouches in the following photos are handcrafted from 100% silk textile called Nishijin-ori. Nishijin-ori is a silk textile brand that are produced in Kyoto city and the textiles are elegant and also durable. "Nishijin" is a district name of the north-west part of Kyoto city, and "ori" means weaving. The Nishijin-ori textiles have been utilized mainly for Kimono belts (obi), and in addition to that they are utilized for men's neckties, table liners, and bags.
Please take a look at our Sukiya-bukuro category. The designs printed on the textile are images of treasures that came along from Persia across the Silk Road once upon a time. These pouches are elegant as well as usable.
