■ What is Charikawa?
This leather was manufactured under the guidance of Charles Hennicle, a leading American leather engineer, and is said to have been introduced to Japan in the early Meiji period when engineers were invited from overseas to receive instruction in order to improve Japan's leather manufacturing techniques. Called "Chari leather" after Charles' nickname, Charlie, it is made by kneading thin, tanned leather until it becomes soft, and was used as a material for bags. It is also a rare leather unique to Japan that is repeatedly kneaded by hand vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, creating deep irregularities on the surface, and is used in luxury brands and leather painting.
