Description

These furoshiki from Tatsumura Art Textiles are perfect for wrapping sweets, alcohol, and gifts. When wearing a kimono, you can also use them as a small bag. Not only are they functional, taking full advantage of the fabric’s thin and lightweight qualities, but they also feature vibrant, eye-catching designs, making them a popular choice as souvenirs for overseas travelers.

Made from 100% pure silk keikin fabric, each furoshiki features a Tatsumura Art Textiles label on the reverse side.

The 60cm square size is perfect for wrapping small bento boxes, boxes of sweets, and wine bottles. The 90cm square size is large enough to wrap a one-shō bottle or be used to make an eco-bag. It can also be used as a tablecloth.

 

Patterns

Koge Zuikin(Brocade with the Design of a Red-dyed Ivory Ruler)

The design of this brocade is adapted from one of the Shoso-in treasures known as the "Koge Bachiru Shaku" meaning a red-dyed and carved ivory ruler. It is an ornamental measure corresponding in length to a regular "shaku" or about 12 inches. After the ivory has been dyed red, its design is carved by means of a carving technique called "hane-hori" or "bachiru", and then tinged with yellow and green to make it colorful. Its full length is divided by lines and a divided part is equivalent to a "sun" or about 1.19 inch. Each part represents a "bird and animal" pattern and a "plant and floral" pattern, and on the back, without dividing lines, are represented patterns which were popular at that time. We reproduced these patterns with a weaving technique of a warp-patterned brocade with the addition of an exquisite color scheme.
