Kinsai craft is a technique established in the Momoyama and Edo periods for applying gold leaf to cloth such as obi belts and kimonos.
This wallet is made of cotton pongee-like fabric in a color of "engi" (a kind of cotton pongee), and is made of "manfuji" (a kind of cotton cloth with a layer of foil) using "aogai" (blue shell) foil.
The expression of the foil differs from piece to piece.
*Yaki foil is made from silver that discolors due to sulfurization, and is discolored by applying heat with an iron to paper or cloth containing sulfur.
This foil discolors over time.
This product can be enjoyed for its age-related changes such as foil peeling and discoloration.

[Harmony in Everyday Life!]
It must be wound and unwound with a string, but the act of doing so gives a sense of Japanese taste.
Of course, it goes well with Japanese-style clothing, but it can also be used in everyday life.
Please enjoy the aging process of the foil peeling and decaying [sabi]!
In addition to wallets, it can also be used as a tool case for pens, hobby tools, etc.

The color of the product may appear different from the actual product depending on the environment in which it is viewed.
Please understand this in advance.
*Do not apply chemicals such as alcohol, benzene, thinner, etc. directly to the foil.
Doing so may cause discoloration or peeling.
*Never apply an iron to the foil.
*Do not rub with fingernails or sharp objects.
*The luster is not permanent and will inevitably fade over time if the fabric is bent or rubbed.
*Do not wash or rinse with water. When soiled, wipe gently with a wet cloth.
*When using it as a mask case, please use antibacterial spray.
*The image is a sample. Since each piece of Yakifoil has a different color and expression, it is impossible to produce exactly the same piece.
*Please note that the part of the cord fastening may also change depending on the availability.
