Vacation Bag “V-type” M, L / Kok / THA 3115401 タイ/コック(すげ) バケーションバッグ V型 M・L 2サイズ
This basket is woven from a grass that grows wild in wetlands, called Kok in Thailand. On this page, we introduce wide and slim baskets with cool open weave, in two sizes, medium and large.
The handle is made by joining the core material at the apex and wrapping a cock around the top. Therefore, if the handle is pulled strongly from side to side or excessive weight is concentrated on a part of the handbag, the handle may be damaged. Please handle with care.
However, Kok is a flexible and durable material. We are sure that it will support you well as a going-out bag or a shopping bag.
When storing them, it is best to keep them in a well-ventilated room where they will not accumulate moisture. We recommend placing it on a high shelf or hanging it rather than leaving it on the floor, and if you have a two-story house, placing it on the second floor rather than the first floor.
