Sai-shogen ("Minimal") Scissors Case
Scissors Case "最小限"A scissor case whose body is formed from a single continuous piece of leather, with no unnecessary parts. Created in collaboration with a working hairstylist, it has been carefully designed down to the smallest detail.
We made countless small adjustments while listening to the input of hairstylists. The shape of the scissor slots, the overall balance, the capacity and depth of the compartments, measures to prevent color transfer onto clothing — requests from the salon floor were naturally incorporated into the finished piece.

Care Instructions
Leather finish
oceano products are made with vegetable-tanned oil leather. Because genuine leather is used, you may find scars or slight unevenness in color; please understand these as part of the leather's character.
To preserve its lovely dyed finish, no protective coating such as lacquer has been applied. Please take care to avoid getting it wet or transferring color.
Maintenance
The leather used for oceano is an oil leather rich in oils, so oiling is generally not required.
Wipe the whole piece with a cloth, and use a brush to remove dust from the stitching and folded areas where it gathers.
After that, check for scratches and scuffs, as well as corners and other spots that dry out easily,
and if needed apply a small amount of leather oil (we recommend plant-based products such as Renapur Leather Treatment).
Please note that applying too much oil can cause color transfer, loss of shape, and a cloudy appearance.
The best care for oil leather is simply to use it. Carry it and use it daily, and enjoy how its character changes moment by moment.
If it gets wet
Water on leather can cause it to lose its shape and can lead to color transfer.
Wipe the surface water away with a cloth, dry it in the shade in a well-ventilated place, and once dry apply a thin coat of oil all over before using it again.
Tanned leather is malleable, so it will dry holding whatever shape it had while wet.
When drying in the shade, keep it in as neat a shape as possible. For a bag, stuffing it with a rolled-up towel or newspaper to hold its shape works well.
Dyed leather is especially prone to color bleeding when wet.
If it does get wet, be mindful of color transfer and take care not to rub it against clothing or other items.
