Obi Shoulder Bag – Midnight Wave

Regular price $70.00
✦ THE STORY BEHIND THE OBI PATTERN ✦
Nami, Rolling Waves
Rolling waves with curling crests rise across a black silk ground, crossed by diagonal bands of small four-petal flowers, all woven tone-on-tone so the pattern appears and fades as the light moves. Waves, or nami, are a timeless Japanese motif expressing strength, resilience, and the endless rhythm of nature. Sleek and understated, this bag pairs effortlessly with both casual and polished outfits.

The Obi Shoulder Bag is a lightweight crossbody bag handmade from a vintage Japanese obi, the decorative sash worn with a kimono. It closes with a magnetic snap and has an adjustable strap, so your phone, wallet, keys, a book, and other daily essentials stay close at hand while both hands stay free.

One of a Kind / Upcycled Design:
Each bag is truly one of a kind. Carefully crafted from vintage Japanese obi, every piece carries its own history, patterns, and character, beautifully reimagined into a modern accessory.

Authentic Obi Fabric:
Made using genuine obi fabric, originally designed to complement kimono, featuring intricate weaving and elegant patterns that cannot be replicated.

Structured & Lined:
Obi fabric is known for its thickness and strength, giving the bag a naturally structured shape while remaining durable for everyday use. The inside is fully lined, with a slip pocket for small items, and the top closes with a magnetic snap.

Hands-Free Crossbody Style:
The strap attaches to metal rings at both sides and has an adjustable buckle, so you can wear the bag across your body or over the shoulder at the length that suits you.

Elegant Statement Piece:
The rich textures and traditional patterns add a refined, eye-catching accent to any outfit, effortlessly elevating both casual and dressy looks.

Handmade with Care:
Each bag is made one by one by hand. Small differences in sewing or in the fabric are part of the handmade character, and we hope you will enjoy them as such.

Please Note: Each bag is one of a kind, and this exact obi pattern will not be available again once sold. The interpretation and symbolism of traditional motifs may also vary depending on cultural context and individual perspective.
