Indigo dyed x elephant leather round zipper half wallet HRD1001
《Awa Sho-Aizome x Elephant Leather》
Elephant leather finished with "Awa Sho-Aizome Dyeing Method," a Tokushima Prefecture Designated Intangible Cultural Property.
Indigo from the Awa region is treated as high-quality Awa indigo among indigo dyes, and its excellent quality has earned it the name "Sho-Ai" (true indigo), making it recognized worldwide as "JAPAN BLUE."
Dyeing is carried out by immersing the leather in a dye made by fermenting the raw material, indigo.
Since it cannot be dyed in one go, the process of dyeing and drying is repeated many times, creating a deep color that is unique to natural indigo. The color and luster will also deepen with age.
A special masterpiece that combines rare elephant leather with traditional Japanese indigo dyeing.
The rough yet beautiful grain patterns unique to elephant leather absorb the shades of natural indigo, revealing an expression as if nature itself had painted it.
The material has a thickness and firmness that leather lovers will adore. The more you use it, the more it softens and conforms to your hand, developing a deep luster.
And the "depth of blue" unique to indigo dyeing changes its expression depending on the viewing angle and light, reflecting the owner's individuality.
No two are alike, making this a wallet that truly offers the "joy of nurturing."
This is a heartfelt creation we want to deliver to those who have a strong love for both leather and indigo.
