Quoted below: About Hime-kawa (white tanned leather) This leather, known as "shiro-nameshi" (white tanning), was already being made in the 4th-5th centuries based on the techniques of Korean Peninsula artisans, and was formerly called "shiro-tan" or "Koshi-tan." During the Warring States period and the Azuchi-Momoyama period, this light, strong, and supple leather was used to decorate the armor and horse gear of warlords. In the Edo period, with the arrival of a peaceful era, its decorative qualities were utilized to create small personal items such as tobacco pouches and document cases. Through a special tanning technique, it achieves a pure white finish without bleaching or dyeing. Because it cannot be dyed with ordinary dyes, specialized chemicals and pigments are used to hand-paint the patterns one by one. It has the curious property of becoming whiter in the sun, and the surface becomes more lustrous with use. This is a pen case made of "Hime-kawa" leather, a traditional craft of Hyogo Prefecture, which is light, durable, and beautiful. It can hold ballpoint pens, mechanical pencils, fountain pens, and markers. It's also sized to fit small rulers and staplers, allowing you to neatly carry a lot of stationery. Because Hime-kawa is characterized by its softness, the opening is easy to open, and it's easy to take out the contents, stress-free. The zipper is also carefully selected, using a high-quality one that opens and closes smoothly. With the smooth and soft texture unique to Hime-kawa, it feels very light to use, but it is a durable material, so you can use it for a long time. Enjoy the craftsmanship, finished by hand one by one. The vibrant colors applied to the white leather will likely brighten your mood every time you use it. Because it's something you use every day, add a little "excitement" to your daily life. This high-quality, stylish traditional craft is perfect for gifts. This product uses high-quality cowhide.
