Document case wrapped in a single piece of leather
Tsutsumu® Clutch A3 Bi-Fold - Foschia
Japanese Beauty Wraps the Heart
In Japan, there is a culture of carefully wrapping important things, such as furoshiki used for gifts, fukusas, and noshibukuro. We designed this clutch bag based on this traditional Japanese aesthetic of wrapping.
A single piece of leather is folded over beautifully like origami to wrap A3 size documents, tablet devices and laptops in A4 size. Elegantly removing important documents from this case will transform your presentation into something prestigious.
A4 size up to A3
Designed by an architect, the case's A4-size exterior allows A3 drawings, documents, and sheet music to be carried without creasing; an A4 clear file (w.220 h.310 mm) can also fit in the case.
There is no stitching around the perimeter, so there is no waste in size.
Attractive thick leather and minimalist form
The
leather used for this clutch bag is waxed, taut, and smooth to the touch. The leather used for this clutch bag is waxed and smooth to the touch, and the more you use it, the more beautifully and tastefully it changes.
The high quality leather is made into a luxurious 70 x 43 cm single piece, with the original thickness that allows you to enjoy the full flavor of the leather.
The edge lines are flowing and continuous in a minimalist form.
Please note that due to the large size of the leather, natural marks (small scratches, wrinkles, and stains) are inevitable.)
It can also hold a laptop and small accessories.

No Damage to Valuable Contents
The inside of the hook hardware is covered with leather to prevent staining or damaging important storage items.
Origins
Foschia is the Italian word for "fog. Foschia is characterized by a white wax-covered look like morning mist. The more the leather is used, the more the wax permeates the leather, giving it a translucent appearance.
Tanning and Manufacturing
The leather is made from the shoulders of adult Scandinavian cows. After vegetable tanning, the surface is lightly buffed and white waxed. The tanning material used is cod, a legume native to South America. Although rare, it is the lightest colored vegetable tannin and has a lightfast finish. It can be tanned whiter than usual, and the beautiful light color is achieved using only dyes, not pigments.
Maintenance
Wax gradually permeates into the leather, giving it an elegant and natural shine. Since it also contains a moderate amount of oil, oil care is not necessary unless you are concerned about scratches or dryness.
Light colors have a delicate surface and are more prone to stains and scratches, so care should be taken when handling them.
