Kinchaku

These kinchaku are made in the style of old Japanese yukata fabric bags and are great with yukata or even casual clothing! Each kinchaku is 100% handmade and can be customized with golden or silver bells. Strings on the bag may differ as I choose them to compliment the fabric being used. The fabric used is authentic Japanese cotton fabric.





To ensure the quality of the kinchaku is preserved, do try to use only dry-cleaning and do not let it come in contact with water (if possible).



RM35 (without bells)
RM40 (with bells)


There's only one kinchaku for each fabric pattern so do email or PM me if you're interested. You can choose from the fabrics that are available in the link that I have posted a few entries back.

(And if you're wondering with the back of the bag in the first picture is a bit odd-shaped... That's because my stuffed toy is hiding inside it XD;;)

(This bag was customized for Quistreous along with a layered-ume kanzashi with bells, so it's no longer available)

Layered Ume Kanzashi Hairclip

Diameter of flower : 2.5in


This gorgeous ume kanzashi took me some time to make, but it was worth it! Two plumblossoms layered on top of each other, the effect of red and white chirimen against each other is really beautiful! Noticably striking when clipped on one side of your head, it is simple yet complicated at the same time.
RM15

Sakura kanzashi hairstick




Length of hairstick : 7in
Diameter of flower : 2in

Handcrafted with soft pink and white Japanese chirimen fabric and decorated with pearl beads, this kanzashi is perfect for those who are feminine at heart!

RM15

This hairstick is actually part of a set with the separate sakura kanzashi hairclip, so if you are interested, buy both and wear them close to each other for the "blossom" look!
