Description

This Nikko Joto Shoulder Bag by East Meets West, is handcrafted in Japan from contemporary kimono fabric. The traditional design, and beautiful colors blend together to create an elegant, wearable piece of art. This Shoulder Handbag is the result of a group of artists, working to the highest standards of craftmanship and design. It's fitting that these are called joto bags - as "joto" means "excellent" in Japanese. Included with your Shoulder Bag, you'll find a special cloth called a "furoshiki". Traditionally, the Japanese have used these fabrics to wrap gifts.  You may choose to do the same, or use it inside your bag to carry jewelry. cosmetics or other small items. The entire collection is only available at certain museum gift shops, art galleries, online and at the personal showroom of Jo Cowan. For more information she can be reached at 216-283-1222

This is a Live Event Item.
