<About VANITAS>
VANITAS is a genre of still-life paintings that were common in northern Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries.
The still lifes depicted roses and plants as symbols of the Virgin and life.

Japanese leather artist Kiyosumi Matsumura expresses the world of Vanitas,
which originated in Western Europe, in leather items such as wallets and bags as works of craft art by using his own perspective and advanced techniques that cannot be imitated by others.

The skulls in the "VANITAS" brand are finished in a very neutral and beautiful way by faithfully facing the human body without deforming it as much as possible to have a specific taste, and the result gives a sense of "elegance" that is difficult to obtain from the skull motif.

The ability to sculpt such a skull from a single piece of leather and make it into a work of art is truly the work of a craftsman with top-class skills and sense of style.
We hope you will enjoy the "ultimate modeling created from a single piece of leather.

<Artist profile : Kiyosumi Matsumura>

<Features of VANITAS products>
VANITAS has established a one-of-a-kind style by combining "lift-up"
, a technique for processing leather into a three-dimensional form, and "carving" and "stamping"
,techniques for engraving leather, which were originally thought to be incompatible.
We are sure that you will be satisfied with the unique shape that you cannot find anywhere else.

The leather is tanned using tannin, which is very precious and environmentally friendly, and the more you use it, the more it tastes good.

*There may be some variation in the shape and fine scratches due to the production by handmade one by one. Please understand it beforehand.
