haru nomura Plant-dyed artist Haruka Nomura Natural dyed linen bag “Travel bag” Purple [HNB-001-PU]

A one-of-a-kind "shape" that can only be created from natural materials. Plant dyeing artist Haruka Nomura dyes a variety of items in natural colors, from small wood beads to reliable, sturdy bags.

Mr. Nomura started making things with vegetable dyes after meeting Masaaki Aoki, a hand dyer who sells his products at our store.

Vegetable dyeing involves boiling down natural dyes such as madder, pomegranate, and logwood, and even if dyed under the same conditions, the resulting dye will be slightly different depending on the weather and mood that day.

Another characteristic of vegetable dyeing is that the color changes as it is used. Mr. Nomura's desire to create something warm, as if breathing with someone's life, and even the fading of colors remains engraved as a memory, is also reflected in Nomura's desire to do so.

The artist Nomura's thoughts on "color" born from nature, and the work of giving form to them. Each one of them becomes Mr. Nomura's work, which has a warm, nostalgic atmosphere, and travels, breathes, and grows with someone.

A bag filled with the writer Haruka Nomura's love for nature. This lightweight 100% linen shoulder bag is hand-dyed with natural dyes.

``It makes me want to get on my bike and go on a leisurely trip...'' This light cross-body bag made of 100% linen was born from the concept of having a stylish and atmospheric atmosphere.

Not only can it be dyed, but it can also be dyed with natural plants. A deep purple dyed with a natural dye called logwood. Finished in a calming color that has been mordanted with iron.
