This is a "fukusa (silk cloth) for tea ceremony" (o^^o) This fukusa is used for fukusa sabaki (handling the silk cloth) to purify the natsume (tea caddy) and chashaku (tea scoop). It's also a fukusa that servers and hanto (assistants) 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, then unfold the fukusa in front of the recipient. We have carefully selected the fabric, aiming for suppleness and ease of handling. m(_ _)m 【Size】 Standard size for tea ceremony fukusa used in tea ceremony. Finished size: Made from a pattern 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, fine nanten (Japanese sacred bamboo) pattern Edo Komon. "Nanten turns away misfortune (nan)" which makes it an auspicious and lucky pattern. It's a lovely coral pink color. For fukusa sabaki, we deliberately did not use interfacing, resulting in a supple and soft finish. Some people use it as a soft de-byakusha (silk cloth). (^_^)v Weight: 27g = approx. 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. Also, because it's 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, so please let us know which items you would like to purchase before making your purchase. #marunMAruun fukusa for tea ceremony
