Another bag with a print from Utagawa Kuniyoshi

I can't quite decide if I would ever wear this one or not. We notice that our Japanese "Gothic" bags tend to sell more to men than almost any of our others, and I have a hunch this is a bit of a "boy's bag".Great fun to do - and more Japanese bags on the way soon we hope.Skeleton Drama! A beautifully bizarre messenger bag featuring a picture by Utagawa Kuniyoshi.Not yet on the shop - but it is listed newly on Etsy here http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=13839983

The Six of Wands

My problem with the Six of Wands is that it tends to be a useful but somewhat worthy and boring card in most decks. So we decided with this version to really pull out the stops and make it into something much more controversial and thought-provoking:The Six of Wands from the Bohemian Gothic Tarot. By Baba Studio.

By the way, this witch is a real gargoyle that hangs over the Mala Strana end of the Charles Bridge. We make her larger, so that she could be seen properly on the card. Interestingly, very few people who walk under her notice her - I suppose there is generally too much going on and too many crowds.
