Speaking of carnival, people dress up in colorful masks 🎭

Everyone lets loose and has fun, making a "festival"!!
This colorful and energetic pattern perfectly captures the atmosphere of a fun festival.

Let's take a look at the production site today!😉

▼This is an "Elephant Carnival" plate. 
 White leather is placed on a heated plate and pressed to create a embossed pattern.


▼I think this is a bi-fold wallet...🤗

Turn the product over and align it to check that the embossing on the front and back is not misaligned. The embossing location is marked on the leather and plate, but it is also important to check it visually.

▼And it looks like this!

Can you see how the arched line in the middle is perfectly connected without any misalignment?  Our craftsmen carefully emboss the product, paying close attention to every detail.

 

The embossed leather is sent to a color craftsman…

▼Each stroke is carefully drawn, as if fitting a jewel.

The bright rainbow colour scheme of gold, turquoise, yellow and orange really cheers me up.🥰🌈


▼Ah! This blue, curly motif looks like a musical note.


By adding brown lines using a technique called "Sabi-ire", the gorgeous motifs and elephants really stand out.


▼The arched motifs on the top and sides of the pattern are inspired by the ornaments worn on the forehead and body of elephants.


Of course, the main elephants are also dressed in gorgeous costumes.

▼Has flower paint on the body!

Wide eyes and long eyelashes are charming.💞

It's fun to decorate every corner with large items!
It's also nice to make the elephant stand out with small items.
It's a really fun pattern🥰

By the way...
"Elephant Carnival" is a pattern made by printing a hand-drawn design, so it is not perfectly symmetrical.


Example:【Elephant Carnival Slim Minimalist Wallet 】

The pattern on each side is slightly different,
but we hope you enjoy it as part of the unique charm of hand-drawn art.

The introduction of the new 98th anniversary pattern will continue in the next issue.
see you soon!👋
