Shirokumasha

When we made sofas and chairs with TRUCK's "Furrowed Leather," we were left with a lot of scrap pieces and ends that we thought would be a waste to throw away. We decided to keep those pieces and give them new life, making little accessories out of them under the name "Atelier Shirokumsha."

One by one, we make all kinds of small items by hand, like belt pouches, cellphone cases, and wallets. Because we use scrap leather that is often scuffed or has rough or floppy edges, each piece has its own unique countenance or "face" that over time and with use not only changes color, but also acquires character and charm.
