A natural leather waste basket that stands elegantly
It's a casual item and yet a luxurious one too. This is a waste basket that harnesses the natural charm of leather and stands elegantly. On the exterior, we used vegetable-tanned leather whose color and luster increase as time goes by. The interior is made with our Waterproof Fine Leather that is resistant to water and can be cleaned easily. Besides using it as a waste basket, we recommend it as something to hold magazines, blankets, or more. The leather, which has a refined texture of its own, upgrades the quality of your living space just by placing the basket down.
- Carefully spaced stitching by our craftspeople to make a beautiful cylinder shape
- Can be used as a waste basket or to hold magazines, blankets, or other items
- Interior made with Waterproof Fine Leather treated with 3M's Scotchgard™ Protectors
- Tsuchiya Kaban logo subtly debossed on interior
- Sturdy bottom exquisitely made with a special wooden mold by our craftspeople
- Transparent coating on edges so their color will change with the leather

Creating genuine, long-lasting bag lovable by people of all ages
Tsuchiya Kaban began in 1965 with two craftsmen and a single sewing machine. Its founder, Kunio Tsuchiya, started making school bags out of his desire to provide children with genuine products, as it is the first bag they will ever hold. They made a simple and elegant design worthy of long-lasting love, featuring comfort, ease of use, and durability lasting the child’s six-year elementary period. The handiwork of these quality-obsessed craftsmen continues to be carefully passed down to the next generation, even as the company grows. These durable and beautiful school bags were made using over 150 parts and more than 300 processes, including material selection, cutting, laminating, and sewing.
As Tsuchiya Kaban’s reputation grew, more and more parents who came to purchase school bags asked for their own bags, and around the year 2000, the company began producing bags for adults as well. The company’s careful handmade craftsmanship utilizes the skills and experience cultivated through producing school bags and is gaining plenty of support. Tsuchiya Kaban’s commitment to leather products has persisted since its founding, believing that the quality of the product is worth the time and effort. The company offers many series that take full advantage of the strengths of various types of leather its user can love as it ages, including natural, tanned leather and soft, oil-soaked tanned leather. OTONA RANDSEL business bag launched on Tsuchiya Kaban’s 50th anniversary and is now a standard item. It uses innovative waterproof smooth leather that combines leather-like qualities with water resistance, in addition to tanned leather and Vachetta leather that can be aged to perfection. There have also been numerous variations in recent years, including wallets, business card holders, and other small items.
Today, Tsuchiya Kaban has craftsmen of all ages, from young teenagers to veterans in their 70s, all working together in friendly competition. Everyone in the company is united in their desire to create something worthy of long-lasting love, fluidly proceeding with production with each part assigned to a different department. Tsuchiya Kaban has set its sights on becoming a globally competitive brand and is continuing to develop products combining traditional and innovative techniques.
