We do our best to photograph the bag to show how they will appear in person, but due to the nature of working with upcycled material there will be some variation in the pattern seen here. This adds an element of uniqueness to the bag, with no two patterns being exactly the same.

Textile sourced from Japanese, clutch bag designed and handmade in Hong Kong.
