Purchased from Izumi Kobo on Mercari in April 2024 for 3,900 yen after falling in love with it at first sight. The photos don't do it justice, but it's a lovely shoulder bag, especially with the shimmering red to pink threads. My current wardrobe is mostly navy, and I'm having trouble coordinating it with black-based items. It's a shame to let it go unused for six months, so I'm offering it to someone who will appreciate it. I was told during the purchase that it was also unused (new) as an obi. I've held it as a bag, but it's unused. I don't notice any damage, stains, or loose stitching, but as it's a handmade item, please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about minor details. It will be shipped folded via Yu-Yu Mercari Bin Packet Post. ★ I don't want to sell Izumi Kobo's items at a discount, and I'm not in a hurry to sell it, so I cannot offer a discount. Thank you for your understanding. ★★ The following is a quote from Izumi Kobo's product description at the time of purchase ★★ This is a shoulder bag made from a repurposed obi. I bought the obi because it was so beautiful. The bag ended up being expensive, but it's a beautiful, shimmering piece. Since it's been unused since it was made, I'm listing it as new and unused. I try to make each one carefully, but please forgive any imperfections such as warping, stains, or poor thread handling.
