Cotton Fish Handkerchief

Blue-eyed fish. A handkerchief with beautiful marker pen bleed and color development.  This was made by AAC.  AAC was established with the aim of creating an environment where people with disabilities can work in art.

Size 46 x 46 cm (18" square), 100% cotton, plover sewn, made in Japan.

These handkerchiefs are created by the Old-Fashioned Company, based in Tokyo. The handkerchiefs are made by local craftsmen who are particular about delicate handwork. At first glance, the handkerchief looks like a square straight line. However, unlike paper, it is not easy to make a square fabric consisting of warp and weft. It seems that even a factory specializing in shirts, which seems more complicated, cannot do the same. At a handkerchief-specialized sewing factory, craftsmen sew with a focus on a square and beautiful finish.

The handkerchiefs can withstand everyday use. Thin, high-quality thread gives the glossy finish and smooth touch. Hand-sewn overlock stitching adds stability and sturdiness. It’s such a pleasure to use these hankies! 100% made in Japan. 100% cotton.
