BERK | Vintage leather commuter bag

Each bag I make is handcrafted from full-grain leather, cut, and slowly sewn in my small workshop in Kanazawa, Japan.  I'm not in a hurry—every edge is polished by hand, every detail crafted with care.

I've been dedicated to traditional leather craftsmanship for over 30 years. What began as a quiet fascination has become a lifelong practice. These bags contain more than just functionality—they carry the patience, pride, and peace of a lifetime spent with my hands.

This handmade leather handbag showcases the beauty of traditional craftsmanship and natural materials. Made from high-quality genuine leather, the bag features a rich texture and natural grain that emphasizes its artisanal character. Each piece is carefully cut, sewn and assembled by hand, giving the bag a unique charm. The structured yet slightly relaxed silhouette is emphasized by clean lines and minimalist details, making it a versatile accessory that combines rustic elegance with modern style.

Designed for everyday use, the bag features sturdy top handles for comfortable carrying and a spacious main compartment that easily accommodates everyday essentials. Inside, you'll find a soft fabric lining and organized compartments that add to the bag's classic charm. The timeless design, combined with the authenticity of the handcrafted leather, makes this handbag a lasting addition to any wardrobe - one that will only get more beautiful with age and use.

Each bag is carefully packaged and shipped by me from Japan, with delivery typically taking 6 to 10 days.

I package each piece with the same care and love I put into making it.  From my hands to yours—thank you for supporting slow, thoughtful craftsmanship.
