rainbow eelskin tote bag
The best tote bag ever!
With its colorful stripes where each hue is distinct,
Can you guess what kind of leather this is?
It’s actually made of eel skin—a material not very familiar in Japan, and the first time I’d heard of it too—but apparently, it’s highly prized as a luxury material in Europe.
Its unique feature is a stitch-like pattern running down the center of the narrow hide, and it’s known for excellent color vibrancy that allows for subtle shades.
I certainly thought it had a sophisticated look I hadn't seen in other leathers, but I never imagined it was eel! lol
It’s also known for being over 1.5 times stronger than cowhide; it’s thin yet soft, with a glossy feel, and is even used for small items like wallets by high-end brands like Burberry.
I love that it’s lighter and easier to carry than genuine leather, yet still durable.
Since it comes from an aquatic creature, it seems to be somewhat water-resistant, too. What an amazing material!
Handmade by a Copenhagen brand, it features a cute polka-dot lining, three pockets in total, and a zip closure, making it perfectly practical as well.
A tote bag that is special in both look and material. Check it out!
