Izumo – Hanatoki Pattern Nishijin-ori Handbag

Handmade Handbag with Hanatoki Pattern Nishijin-ori – A Fusion of Japanese Tradition and Quiet Elegance

This handbag is crafted using brand-new Nishijin-ori, not recycled or antique kimono fabric.The textile is woven exclusively for contemporary craftsmanship, ensuring purity, durability, and a refined, luminous finish.

Bringing together more than a thousand years of Kyoto’s weaving heritage and the calm precision of our Osaka workshop, this handbag reflects a harmony of traditional artistry and modern sophistication.
The Hanatoki pattern—an elegant expression of seasonal flowers such as cherry blossoms, peonies, maple leaves, and camellias—adds a graceful presence that shifts gently with the light.

A brass handle offers a warm, understated glow and develops a unique patina over time, enriching the handbag’s timeless character. Designed as a refined party bag, it complements formal attire and ceremonial kimono with natural ease.

Exquisite Hanatoki Pattern Nishijin-ori

Nishijin-ori is renowned for its intricate patterns, depth of color, and subtle shimmer.
Among its many motifs, the Hanatoki pattern (“the moment of blooming”) is cherished for its portrayal of Japan’s spring season, capturing the quiet elegance found in nature’s transitions.

Timeless Brass Handle

The brass handle provides:
・A soft golden tone that enhances sophistication
・Long-lasting durability
・A graceful aging process that deepens its character over the years

Handcrafted Excellence

With over 42 years of expertise, our artisans shape each handbag with care and precision using Tatsumi’s traditional forming techniques.
The result is a silhouette that feels gently rounded, structured, and refined—highlighting the beauty of the textile while offering practical ease for daily use.

Despite its compact appearance, the handbag comfortably fits essentials such as a phone, small wallet, and cosmetics.
An inner pocket allows for organized storage.

Water-Repellent & Durable

A discreet water-repellent coating helps protect the textile from moisture and stains, allowing the beauty of the Nishijin-ori to be preserved over time.

A Unique Art Piece & Meaningful Gift

Because each piece of Nishijin-ori is individually woven, every handbag carries its own character.
It is not merely an accessory, but a small work of art—an embodiment of Japanese tradition, light, and craftsmanship.
A thoughtful gift for life’s memorable moments.
