Thank you for viewing! This is a shinobue (Japanese bamboo flute) bag made with a clasp. I made this because I thought, "Wouldn't it be nice if there was something like this?" after experiencing things like the string of my usual shinobue bag easily coming undone, or the flute slipping out when I put it in my happi coat sash... Something that could be taken out and put away quickly... My fellow hayashi (Japanese traditional music ensemble) members gave it high praise, so I decided to try listing it. Since it's handmade by an amateur, there may be imperfections in the construction, rough stitching, or it may be fragile. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect product. No claims, no returns, please. Also, since a clasp (metal fitting) is used, please be careful not to scratch the flute when taking it in and out. I've attached two D-rings to the long side of the flute bag. You can attach your own strap and use it as a shoulder bag. I've also attached a string diagonally in the center of the flute bag. I hope you can use it to prevent the flute from falling out when you put it in your obi (sash - the width may not fit). Material: 100% polyester Obi scraps used Gold and silver thread used Flat measurement (approximate) Total length: 50cm (including metal fittings) Width: 5cm Strap part: 12cm (including metal fittings) It seems to be able to accommodate flutes up to about 48cm long. The flute used for the photo (length about 46.5cm, outer circumference about 7cm) is wrapped in plastic wrap for the photo. Also, the flute is not included. Please purchase only if you understand that it is handmade and stored by an amateur. Returns and refunds are not possible. I am not considering lowering the price at this time. Shipping will be done by reusing bags I have on hand. It will also be shipped folded. Please understand that there may be creases. #flutebag #4honchoshi #5honchoshi #handmade #shinobue #clasp #flutecase #kotentyo #doremityo #utacyo shinobue bag
