Wholesale Mindful Lucky Charm Leather Kit – Goldfish / White

Mindful craft for busy adults — you don't buy luck, you make it. Put your phone down and spend one quiet, focused hour lacing real leather together by hand. The holes are already punched, so there's no piercing and no glue — you simply pass the waxed thread through, like lacing a shoe. No sewing experience needed, and what you make is a meaningful object to keep and display: a Japanese lucky charm (engimono) you made yourself. 【 Why leather 】 Unlike knitting or a puzzle, leather works every sense — the grain under your fingers, its quiet scent, the soft sound of the thread drawing through. This colourway is chrome-tanned for stability: the colour and texture stay as you finished them. As you lace the parts together, flat pieces take on volume and the goldfish's soft curves and fins emerge. Two speeds of time — Natural evolves. Colours stay. 【 What the goldfish brings 】 In Japan and China the goldfish (kingyo) is an engimono — a lucky charm said to bring: - Money luck — "kingyo" carries the character for gold - Wealth and prosperity, in both Japan and China - Flowing water for abundance and good circulation - Calm, peaceful days at home A charm you make by hand carries the intention you put into it. 【 How it works 】 No glue — the leather parts come pre-cut and pre-punched. Following the illustrated steps, you build the form by lacing the parts together. It comes together through thread tension alone. The way you would lace a shoe. Busy hands, quiet mind. 【 Made in Kyoto 】 This is genuinely made in Kyoto, not just packed here: every leather part is designed, cut, and punched by hand in our own Kyoto workshop, from full-grain leather given a long second life. Finished, the goldfish rests on a desk or shelf as a small sculptural object — a kept reminder, not a kit to throw away. 【 Kit details 】 - Skill level: Level 2 — Intermediate (no sewing — lacing through pre-punched holes) - Making time: approx. 60–90 minutes - Included: 11 pre-cut, pre-punched cowhide leather parts / waxed thread (enough for one piece) / blunt-tip needles / printed instructions (English & Japanese) - You'll need: scissors 【 Size & Weight 】 - Finished size: approx. 19.5 × 8 × 13.5 cm (7.7 × 3.1 × 5.3 in) - Finished weight: approx. 70 g (2.5 oz) - Package size: approx. 19.6 × 14.5 × 2.3 cm (7.7 × 5.7 × 0.9 in) - Package weight: approx. 150 g (5.3 oz) 【 Materials 】 Genuine full-grain cowhide leather, waxed thread.
