Highest quality domestic wild grape (yama-budou) basket bag, first-layer bark, oblique weave with small oval pattern, and domestic persimmon tannin-dyed inner lining. Size: Width 30 x Depth 11 x Height 23 (all in centimeters) (Large and small sizes are also available. Please inquire via comments if you wish.) This bag uses the very rare and durable wild grape vines that grow, clinging to trees deep in the mountains, far from human settlements. The harvested vines are carefully stripped by artisans and dried in the sun for a long period. Skilled artisans weave the vines carefully to prevent the weave from loosening. The narrower the vine width, the more time and labor it takes to weave, but this product is woven with extremely thin 3mm vines. The more you use it, the more the texture of the material enhances its beauty and develops a luster, so you can enjoy the change in color over time, which is a great charm. With its dark, chic color, it can be used widely with both Western and Japanese clothing. This is a top-quality item with a persimmon tannin-dyed inner lining, making it popular with men as well. The inner lining uses the highest quality persimmon tannin-dyed fabric. If you actually hold the product in your hand, you will see that the material and design are incomparably better than imported products. What is the first-layer bark? It is woven in its natural state, with almost no processing of the outer bark. Therefore, the color is a chic, dark tone, and you can fully enjoy the natural taste of the vines. What is the second-layer bark? It is made by removing the outer layer of the first-layer bark and using only the beautiful, soft inner part. Therefore, it has a very smooth texture and a mild, gentle color. Depending on the weaving method, it is a very difficult bark that requires the skill of the artisan. (This is a product from artisans in Yamagata Prefecture. It is not a product woven domestically from imported vines.)
