Why Do WASHIKA Bags Appear to Glow?

Why Do WASHIKA Bags Appear to Glow?

Hello, everyone. Have you ever looked at photos of WASHIKA bags and wondered, "Why does this bag seem to glow?"

Today, we'll address this question and unveil the secrets behind the special design embedded in our bags.

At WASHIKA, we craft unique bags by combining traditional Japanese Washi paper with refined leather. This fusion of distinct materials has given rise to bags that are not only lightweight and durable but also allow you to experience the unique texture of Washi.

Washi is a material that beautifully transmits light. By using Washi itself as a material for the bag, it exhibits different expressions under sunlight or artificial lighting, showcasing its unique charm. However, it's crucial to clarify that our bags themselves do not emit light.

In our product photos, we subtly illuminate the interior of the bags with a faint light, capturing the way it permeates through the Washi. This helps express the distinctive presence that WASHIKA bags possess.

However, it's important to note that this is a photographic effect created during the shooting process, and the bags themselves do not emit light. As explained in our product pages and descriptions, there is no built-in light in the bags. We appreciate your understanding.

WASHIKA delivers bags with a new sense of style born from the special marriage of washi paper and leather. The "light" seen in photos is an artistic effect to accentuate the appeal of the products and differs from the actual product specifications. We hope you understand and immerse yourself in the unique world of WASHIKA.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know. Thank you for staying with us until the end.
