Otsuki Sama, the majesty of the moon

Original textile designs, linen, bags, stationary, ceramics : Otsuki Sama‘s collections are made by hand by French designer Valérie Bast Laudier, either in her studio, or manufactured by skilled artisans in Lyon and Paris. Each item has its own story and invites you into the poetic world of Otsuki Sama, the majesty of the moon.

There is a Japanese flavour, both in the name and in the products. This simply because Valerie spent 12 years in Japan, learning traditional arts and crafts techniques and calligraphy. Lots of indigo, tie and dye, handmade prints, and now even lovely crochet bags in grey, in blue, in pink.
