Orange & Gold Floral Shosoin Sling Bag

Description

This Shosoin patterned sling bag was created from a mid to early Showa era obi.  It’s 100% silk with gold metallic thread and has the original obi lining.  The “Shosoin pattern” widely refers to patterns seen in the Nara period that were influenced by Western Asia and China.

I’ve also created a clutch with this obi. Orange & Gold Shosoin Floral Clutch

You can also wear this unique sling as a waist bag.
The bag is 7″ wide and 14” long from ring to ring.
