With the Urashima Taro clasp, you can keep a fairy tale in your pocket.
Urashima Taro Purse - A drop of folktales in your pocket
One sunny afternoon.
A small yellow purse sat perched on a mossy rock.
The illustrations on the fabric softly emerge in the soft light.
A boy riding a turtle, swaying seaweed, and bubble-like motifs.
A mysterious world that feels somehow nostalgic, yet never seen before.
WABISUKE's "Urashima Taro Purse" is an item that combines the narrative quality of a folktale with the warmth of handcrafted items.
The motif is the famous "Urashima Taro," but neither Taro's name nor an explanation of the story is depicted anywhere.
Instead, there are only pop and warm illustrations that will make your heart feel lighter the moment you see them.
"Room for imagination" - that is the appeal of this purse.

■ A design that starts a little adventure every time you look at it
The boy, painted on bright yellow fabric, has a somewhat smug, yet playful expression.
Resting on its back is a rounded, softly colored turtle.
Motifs of seaweed and bubbles are scattered around it, making it seem as if a small ocean is spreading out in your pocket.
WABISUKE's original designs do not simply reproduce the world of fairy tales,
It is characterized by being rewritten as a "fairy tale that gently fits into modern everyday life."
That's why just looking at it can bring a smile to the face of both adults and children.

It's hard to lose in your bag, and it doesn't take up much space in your pocket.

I want to lighten my load today.
On days like that, you can even take a short walk with just this purse.

■ Why WABISUKE chose "Urashima Taro"
Folk tales have a universal quality that allows them to be passed down through time.
To help, to depart, to come back.
The story of Urashima Taro is filled with joy and sadness, hope and emptiness.
By encapsulating this theme in a small container like a clasp,
It creates the feeling that the story is gently flowing into everyday life.
And the other reason is very simple.
--Because the image of the boy riding the turtle is just so adorable.
This humor and poetry are at the root of WABISUKE's craftsmanship.
