A "nokori-zome" dyed tote bag. Made using high-quality Kurashiki canvas and designed with a simple shape for the purpose of ease of use. Dyed using yomogi (Japanese mugwort) broth leftover when making kusamochi. Features the characteristic deep green color of yomogi from the Ibi region of Gifu Prefecture - an area which is a treasure trove of medicinal plants.

[Nokori-Zome]
During the process of making food, there are food material leftovers - "nokori" in Japanese. "Nokori-zome" is a dyeing method made using this "nokori". It features the characteristic soft natural texture of food.
KURAKIN series items are all "nokori-zome" dyed. They are dyed using the parts of food that we do not out eat, the "nokori". They have gentle, warm colors that blend well into a Japanese-style life. This soft color is made with the thought that it will be a suitable color for a lifestyle fabric accessory, and so all KURAKIN items are "nokori-zome" dyed.

[Nokori-Zome Color]
Nokori-zome items are available in 11 colors. Each manufactured item inherits what is used to dye it - the "nokori" that becomes the dye ingredient.
Due to the natural materials/ingredients, the color may differ slightly due to the season and time of year.
