here is a final picture of now ‘opened’ bag. a very crafted and comfortable tote bag, which is 100% hand sewn and in general handmade processes. which secures the quality and duration of its life. the drying process of each bag takes minimum two days before it molds into the texture and depth I want it to have. I am getting more fond of it, as it opens and softens up the more one wear it.

Design by AD.INFINITUUM

“Beginning in the middle 1700s and continuing through the 1950s, the Japanese depended on mosquito netting (kaya) made from hemp fibers for protection against the ubiquitous summer mosquito”...”Homespun and hand loomed hemp was a common fiber used to make kaya. Kaya was  important and so highly regarded in Japan for its help to protect against the mosquito that it often took on an artistic presence. Famous 17th ~ 19th century Ukiyo-e artists selected kaya as background or subject matter for their paintings.”

yet another great piece from Andrzej Bero. a low profile shiboridashi that holds 40-50ml, hence perfect for gyokuro, fine sencha etc.  it is very pleasant to hold when pouring, and the extreme lightweight is balanced considering when e.g. pouring a gyokuro for several minutes. at this moment brewing a sencha from mt. Fuji, shizuoka by mr. Akiyama- imported by one of my favorite shops in London; Postcard Teas. Such delicate, floral leaves that is as interesting in its 50s- 80s celcius.
