This is a "fukusa (silk cloth) for tea ceremony" (o^^o) This fukusa is used for fukusa sabaki (handling the fukusa) to purify the natsume (tea caddy) and chashaku (tea scoop). It's also a fukusa that the okobisan (tea server) and hanto (assistant) always carry, tucked into their obi (sash) or at their waist. Feel free to use it to match your attire or the theme of the tea gathering. When presenting a noshi-bukuro (ceremonial envelope) or a precious item to someone, it's elegant to lightly wrap it in this fukusa and present it to them, unfolding the fukusa in front of them. We have carefully selected the fabric for its suppleness and ease of handling. m(_ _)m 【Size】 Standard size for tea ceremony fukusa. Made from a pattern with finished dimensions of 27.5 cm (height) x 28.4 cm (width). Finished size is approximately 27cm x 28cm. Sewn without a knot. Please allow for slight size variations. 【Fabric】 Pure silk with a slightly rough texture. The classic red background features a pop and slightly abstract depiction of mon (family crests) in a circular pattern. Accents of grapes, paulownia, and plum in subdued colors are added. This unique fukusa will lift your spirits and bring brightness to those around you. Why not enjoy the design and have a conversation about the mon (family crests)? As a side note, it is said that Louis Vuitton took inspiration from Japanese family crests for their designs... This fukusa is made without a core for suppleness and softness, specifically for fukusa sabaki. Some people also use it as a soft debukusa (a type of tea cloth). (^_^)v Weight: 27g = approximately 7 monme (one monme is 3.75g) ❤️ Since it's new, there are no creases. When using it, decide which side is the front and fold it in quarters. Since it is large, it will be lightly folded in half to prevent creases during shipping. m(_ _)m 【Discounts for Multiple Purchases】 1st item: Listed price + 2nd item: (Listed price - 150 yen) 3rd and 4th items will also be discounted by 150 yen. ♡ If you wish to purchase multiple items, we will create a dedicated listing for you.
