Special Collaboration Item: SIWA and minä perhonen
A Unique Item Born from the Collaboration between SIWA and minä perhonen
This is a washi paper pen case, perfect for carrying 4 to 5 writing instruments, plus a ruler and eraser, making it ideal for everyday use.
As you use it, the texture of the washi paper becomes more pronounced, becoming softer and more supple, enveloping your precious pens and fountain pens, protecting them from scratches and wear. The YKK zipper features an enlarged pull tab for easier opening and closing.
- Material and Craftsmanship: Made from a new type of washi paper, hard naoron, which is extremely lightweight and highly durable. The seam-concealing structure is meticulously crafted by artisans on sewing machines. This pencil case series includes both this "M size" and a larger "L size" for greater capacity.
Background of the Collaboration
SIWA welcomed minä perhonen to create this special item together. This collaboration follows the SIWA×URUSHI series that started in 2015, marking the second project between the two brands. minä perhonen’s hand-drawn designs are carefully silkscreen-printed onto the naoron Japanese paper, ensuring the design’s rich storytelling nature remains unfaded over time, providing warmth and companionship in daily life.
Commitment to Craftsmanship
In this project, we used silkscreen printing to showcase minä perhonen’s delicate patterns and colors, printing each piece by hand. This printing technique is well-suited to the material, allowing you to enjoy the changing patterns along with the unique aging of SIWA’s material. Additionally, for the handle parts of the Briefcase M, we used the same naoron material as the bag itself instead of the usual fabric, creating a cohesive and enhanced design.
About the Patterns
From minä perhonen’s textile design archives, we selected three patterns—“life puzzle,” “run run run,” and “memoria”—and applied them to seven types of SIWA items. Enjoy the imaginative landscapes created by minä perhonen’s nature-inspired motifs and the evolving textures of SIWA’s material.
