https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0449/2302/7613/files/Product_Story.jpg?v=1786955566 **— A Book Cover That Stays Secure in Your Bag —** https://youtu.be/YbpdvIbleJM https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0449/2302/7613/files/st-33_1_480x480.jpg?v=1604640074 This book cover was born from the desire to solve the problem of ordinary book covers opening up inside bags, causing pages to fold. Its nickname, "Barca," means "boat" in Spanish. We named it this, layering the image of a small boat on a quiet journey onto its role of carrying and protecting books. Featuring a zipper on three sides, it securely encloses your book when closed, offering peace of mind even when tossed in your bag. The soft leather used fits comfortably in your hand right from the start, making it a pleasure to use. This size is designed for paperback books. For sizes like B6, please inquire beforehand. **— Accommodates Up to 500-Page Paperbacks —** https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0449/2302/7613/files/st-33_13_480x480.jpg?v=1604640118 It accommodates paperback books up to approximately 500 pages thick (about 2 cm). The zipper end is secured to the main body with embroidery. The embroidery color uses the yellow and light blue of the Ukrainian flag. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0449/2302/7613/files/st-33_6_480x480.jpg?v=1604640198 https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0449/2302/7613/files/Size_Leather_Care.jpg?v=1786955566 **【Dimensions】** Width: 12.5cm Height: 17cm Depth: 2cm Weight: 120g **【Specifications】** Machine thread color: Matched to the main body color Double-line embroidery: Yellow x Light Blue (Ukraine) Material: Domestic cowhide leather Hardware: Iron Thread: Polyester Lining: None (single piece of genuine leather construction) **【Genuine Leather That Develops Character Over Time】** https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0449/2302/7613/files/pinkoi-6color.jpg?v=1786979698 Uses vegetable-tanned cowhide leather from a domestic tanner.

Japlish is a portmanteau of "Japanese" and "English," meaning "Wasei-eigo" (Japanese-made English). It embodies the aspiration to create leather goods from Japan for the world. In addition to online sales, we have experience selling at department stores in Hakata Station and collaborating with famous characters. Currently, two artisans meticulously craft each item by hand in our atelier in Sanno, Hakata Ward. We exclusively use Japanese-made cowhide leather. We deliver items that can be cherished for a long time, nurtured like a growing plant. **— Our Journey —** 2009 Founded after leaving HERZ 2013 Opened atelier and shop in Minato, Hakata Ward 2017 Produced novelty items for the Anpanman Museum 2019 Exhibited at a handmade event in Taiwan 2020 Launched collaboration coin purses with Miffy (currently ended) 2023 Relocated atelier and shop to Sanno, Hakata Ward 2025 Launched second Miffy collaboration coin purses (currently ended)
