Emerald Green Floral Diamond – Vintage Kimono Phone Bag / 七宝の携帯バッグ
This delicate phone bag is handcrafted in London by Risa from antique Japanese kimono silk, handpicked in Kyoto and dating back approximately 100 years. Featuring a refined Floral Diamond (Shippō / 七宝) motif, the design symbolises harmony, prosperity, and the interconnectedness of life—values deeply rooted in Japanese tradition.
Rendered in rich emerald green tones, the geometric floral pattern carries both elegance and quiet depth. The fabric’s naturally aged texture reflects its history and craftsmanship, making each mark and thread part of its story.
Due to the nature of this rare antique textile, the silk is exceptionally delicate and may fray over time. Should this occur, simply trimming loose threads will help prevent further damage—allowing the piece to be cared for with the same respect with which it was preserved.
A decorative button, carefully selected by Risa from a vintage market in London, completes the design, adding a subtle dialogue between Japanese heritage and contemporary British sourcing.
