Sukiya Bukuro (A Pouch) (Tea-things) (iaru-no-ushi)

It was a sincere hope of the ancient Egyptian that they could l ive happily in the next world after death in the same way as in this world. Their wish was common even to the animals, especially to the bulls as they were worshipped as the sacred in the ancient Egyptian religion. The "Field", or the "Field of Reeds", is the heavenly paradise of the next world in the ancient Egyptian mythology, where it is located on the eastern horizon from where the Sun rises. The design idea of this brocade is adopted from a wall painting of the "Field" drawn in the 19th Dynasty of Egypt (12C, BC) and woven into warp-patterned brocade with our exquisite weaving technique.
