Description
This bi-fold billfold is a popular item due to its smart shape and convenience. Light and flexible cowhide is used for the corners and lining, which are prone to rubbing. It has one coin purse with a snap closure that is easy to open and close, and two bill compartments. It also has four card slots, so you can use it neatly with the minimum number of cards you need. Accessories that become more familiar to you over time will shine even more the longer you use them.

KUSURI-DANA-NO HEBI(The Snake on the Medicine Cabinet)
While strolling through the towns in the European countries, you will often see a signboard drawing a snake at a pharmacy. A snake coiling around a champagne glass is called "The Bowl of Hygieia" which is used as a symbol of pharmaceutical sciences worldwide. Hygieia is a name of a goddess in Greek myth and said to govern a good health and to control the sanitation.
The design of this brocade is modeled after a medicine cabinet in an extant historic pharmacy in the East Europe, plus a snake pattern which is closely related with the pharmaceutical sciences. We designed, with an uplifting feeling, the line-up of various shapes of earthenware medicine containers as if stepping into a place where the long history is still breathing in the comfortable aroma of medical herbs. This concept was woven into a warp-patterned brocade in the brilliant colors.
