About
A rich life with handmade goods.
Dove & Olive is a company that runs a leather workshop in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture.
"Healing people and the earth through manufacturing and contributing to peace"
The brand name Dove & Olive is derived from the symbol of peace, "a dove with olive leaves."
This "dove with olives" appeared in the Old Testament and informed Noah that the Flood was over, so it is a congratulatory sign of peace and good news.
We named it because we hope that our leather products will be a talisman for our customers and help them to be happy.

Dove & Olive's Origin
Our founder, Hajime Ono, who likes making things, created a canvas bag to carry and sell paintings when he was a student.
That is the origin of Dove & Olive.
From there, Ono learned manufacturing from leather from vocational schools, bag wholesalers, and downtown craftsmen.
In 2007, he founded Dove & Olive as a company that makes and sells leather goods.
