A large-sized coin purse made from cloth dyed with stencil dyeing.
With ample storage, it's perfect as a cosmetic pouch.
It can also serve as a pen case that can hold anything from masking tape and correction tape to sticky notes and scissors.
The outer fabric is cotton woven with a rough texture, and the inner lining is carefully made from thick linen. The metal fittings are brass, giving it a chic impression. The opening and closing are smooth.
The compatibility between basket bags and coin purses is well-known.
The round shape and modern design and color scheme are lovely.
The large size can fit a 13cm hand cream placed horizontally.
The small size can perfectly fit a lip balm vertically.
It's also cute to have both large and small sizes made from the same fabric.

●●● Incorporating Dyeing into Daily Life ●●●
We aim to create works that add an accent to daily life.
We hope that by encountering Yotsume's dyed fabrics, people will feel refreshed and their daily lives will become a little brighter.
Using traditional dyeing techniques called Katazome (stencil dyeing) and Tsutsugaki (freehand paste-resist dyeing),
most processes are done by hand.
Fabrics dyed by hand possess a unique "ambiguity" that machines cannot reproduce.
The outlines of lines may be blurry, or the stencil might be slightly misaligned.
While these are unintentional,
this "ambiguity" is somewhat interesting and conveys the warmth of human hands.
We aim to create such fabrics.

Owl Red
Color: Red × Black
Owl Mustard
Color: Mustard × Purple
The "Stencil-dyed Tenugui Owl" boldly depicts an owl with wide-spread wings.
Owls are considered very auspicious in Japan, often associated with "fukurō" (不苦労, meaning no hardship) and "fuku-rai" (福来, meaning good fortune comes).
Hanafu Red
Textile name: Hanafu, Color: Red
The Hanafu pattern was created in the early days of Yotsume Senpusya. When we first started, I was not yet accustomed to creating patterns and struggled quite a bit.
I loved floral patterns and tried to create them, but it just wasn't working. I kept trying to create a floral pattern using a method that even I, at that time, could manage, and as a result, this Hanafu pattern was born.
Although it is far from a typical floral pattern, it has become a popular and representative pattern of Yotsume Senpusya.
Portrait Charcoal Gray
Textile name: Portrait, Color: Charcoal Gray
The Portrait pattern, inspired by portrait paintings, has been applied to this tenugui.

When rain falls, leaves and flowers express even deeper colors.
The fabric of this noren, nama-hemp linen, is dyed with very vibrant colors.
It was dyed in a deep, rich hue, just like hydrangeas wet with the plum rain.
About the material
Fabric name: Nama-hemp linen
Both the warp and weft threads use hand-spun ramie yarn.
The unbleached, natural beige and brown colors of ramie are woven in a woodgrain pattern.
This nama-hemp linen has the crispness typical of linen fabric and a textured surface, which, combined with the woodgrain pattern, highlights its natural feel.
Washing instructions
・Ink-dyed items are susceptible to friction, so please do not rub them.
・Do not wash in a washing machine.
・If partially soiled, gently dab the soiled area with a damp cloth to remove the stain.
・If heavily soiled, fill a bathtub with enough water to fully immerse the noren, dissolve a neutral detergent in the water, and soak wash.
All products are handmade.
Please note that the fabric color and slight size differences may vary from the photos.
