The leather, which has been with the brand for 20 years, has been specially commercialized.


Wild Swans carefully selects the finest leathers from world-renowned tanneries, including rare exotic leathers, and prioritizes curved forms that minimize damage for long-lasting use. Their motto is "making durable and long-lasting tools," and their selection of high-quality materials, designs that prevent deterioration, meticulous stitching, and thoroughly crafted finishes are truly appealing.


Mr. Yamada of the brand explains the characteristics of the leather, saying, "The thick, rounded edges are thoroughly polished and finished slowly and carefully using old-fashioned foot-operated sewing machines." This "Japan Crafts Museum" event will feature products made from rare materials that were stockpiled in the Wild Swans atelier to commemorate the brand's 20th anniversary.
