Premium Handcrafted "Double Happiness" Bag Charm

This handcrafted leather bag charm, featuring the "Double Happiness" character, is a distinctive creation by bogu+ collaborator Zhou Zhou. With a background in fashion design, Zhou Zhou was captivated by the art of leatherworking, embracing its slow, meticulous process that imbues each piece with both warmth and soul. As Zhou Zhou describes, leather craftsmanship is an ancient skill rooted in patience—dating back to the nomadic cultures of China, where the careful treatment of animal hides was an essential part of daily life.

Continuing this tradition, Zhou Zhou works with natural vegetable-tanned leather, hand-stitching every piece with a needle and thread, a process that can take weeks to complete. This artisanal spirit resonates deeply with the values of bogu+, which champions timeless craftsmanship and thoughtful design.

For this piece, Zhou Zhou was inspired by the "囍" character, a symbol of joy and blessing in Chinese culture. The "Double Happiness" motif, often seen in wedding ceremonies, represents the union of two lives in happiness and completeness. Zhou Zhou’s design incorporates color-blocking and contrasting hues to reflect the symmetry and beauty of the character, creating a playful yet elegant accessory. The vibrant and warm colors evoke a sense of joy and celebration, making this charm a perfect addition to any bag or accessory collection.

This handcrafted leather bag charm not only adds a touch of cultural heritage but also embodies a modern and joyful aesthetic, symbolizing love, happiness, and harmony.
