NEW! Chirimen Kinchaku

These chirimen kinchaku are delicately handcrafted with love and care with the highest quality of chirimen fabric! Chirimen fabric shrinks when it comes in contact with water so the utmost care must be taken when using these kinchakus. The fabric has an uneven texture and gold embellishments. Golden bells are included.

Three chirimen fabrics are available for these chirimen kinchakus :

- Usagi and Sakura on PURPLE
- Layered Sakura Petals on PURPLE
- Manjuu Usagi and Sakura on PINK SOLD OUT

Base : Approximately 4.7in x 4.7in
Height : Approximately 5.5in

(Measurements may differ slightly on each bag because it's handmade therefore the measurements are not always the same. But I assure you the measurements match the numbers given above)

RM50 each (golden bells included)

USAGI AND SAKURA - PURPLE





Beautiful texture of the chirimen!



MANJUU USAGI AND SAKURA - PINK



Lovely texture of the fabric!



No pictures available for Layered Sakura Petals on PURPLE. The fabric has been shown previously in the tissue pouches :



NOTE : The colour of the strings on the kinchaku can be changed to either white or purple (for the purple fabric) and white or red (for the pink fabric).

Please email me at plue_87[at]hotmail.com if you are interested! I welcome all enquiries ^^

Thank you and have a delicious day!

Kinchaku Update!

There are a few new kinchaku patterns up for grabs, and two old ones that I've completed! Do email me at plue_87[at]hotmail.com if you're interested. I'm on MSN too ^_^

Bon Odori is coming in a month or two's time, are you ready with your yukata and accessories? >w< I'm looking forward to it too!



Wave of Flowers - PINK) SOLD OUT

This traditional looking fabric is a delicate shade of pink and has flowers scattered on waves. Feminine and sweet at the same time!



Little Plovers - LIGHT BLUE) SOLD OUT

The plover ("chidori" in Japanese) is a traditional Japanese bird, and is used as the symbol of the Pontocho geisha area in Kyoto. Small adorable clovers decorate this subdued looking fabric of light blue!



Maneki Neko - WINE RED

The Maneki Neko, or beckoning cat, is seen as a symbol of good luck and is a big part of life in Japan. The dark wine color of the fabric brings out the brightness of the cats and looks cute with golden bells too!


These two kinchaku were made from bubble-textured Japanese cotton with patterns of adorable kingyo (goldfish)!


Orange background. The strings used are red and golden bells are attached.


Red background. Red and blue strings are used to make a special combination that matches the fabric.

A special price can be given if both kinchaku are purchased at once ^_^

All kinchaku are priced at RM35 each (without bells) and RM40 each (with bells). All fabric used is authentic Japanese cotton imported from Japan.

Thank you and have a delicious day!

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)
