The Story Behind the PieceOriginally woven into a ceremonial obi—the refined sash worn over kimono—this silk fabric embodies the sophistication of traditional Kyoto craftsmanship.
The Silver Pink Butterfly motif, delicately woven and softly shimmering, represents transformation, grace, and joyful renewal in Japanese culture. Butterflies (蝶) are cherished symbols of beauty and hopeful new beginnings, making this piece a subtle yet meaningful expression of elegance.
How to Style ItPerfect for carrying your favourite books to cafés, libraries, or study sessions—yet polished enough to double as a lightweight pouch for small essentials. Designed with a structured yet easy-to-carry form, it blends practicality and refinement, making it a graceful companion for everyday use.
