Gentle Fool Studio x ESTE Tote Bag

GENTLE FOOL STUDIOS x ESTE 

お茶のひととき - a moment just for you, a moment for tea.

This tote carries the art of Isabelle Suen of Gentle Fool Studios, who cuts each piece entirely by hand with only scissors, highlighting the unique charm of every edge. The scissor-cut silhouette of a girl mid-sip feels almost ceremonial, like a scene from a fairytale that happens every morning.

The phrase was inspired by one of our producers in Japan, who ends every email with a cheerful "have a nice tea!".

Tea doesn’t have to be something you simply drink. It can be something that holds you. An invitation to slow down through the warmth it offers or the way it soothes without a word.

Carry this as a reminder to slow down and to have a nice tea!
