This is the "Okaishi Protection Holder" to protect your *kaishi* (paper napkins). It can also be used as a "Goshuin-cho Holder" (for temple stamp books). It gently protects the corners and washi paper of your Goshuin-cho with silk. (^_^)v *This is a large size that fits men's kaishi, so women who prefer a larger size can also use it.* You can also put "celebratory envelopes" inside. It's cool when a man subtly takes out this "Kaishi Protection Holder" from the collar of his kimono or the inner pocket of his formal wear ❤️ Also, it's thin, so women can handle it smartly. This item protects your kaishi from folding and fraying. It also gives a sense of cleanliness. When you have tea, it's nice to enter the tea room with only this "Kaishi Protection Holder" and a tea fan, keeping your belongings streamlined. (^_^)v It's a trifold type that folds the top like a lid, and it's my (Marun's) original "monozukuri" (craftsmanship) conceived item. The core is thin, but it's a firm obi core, so it's not sewn, but constructed using glue and finished. Kaishi are used to place food on, but they are often unprotected, placed in fukusa holders or sukiyabukuro (tea ceremony bags). Also, the corners get folded or the edges deteriorate over time. Please use this item to wrap your kaishi and protect them from folding or deterioration. 【Size】 *It fits men's kaishi size, so it's about 1.3 times larger than the women's size (see image).* Tri-folded: 13cm (length) (29cm when opened) x 19.5cm (width) 【Fabric & Other Materials】 Outer Fabric: Silk. The outlines are expressed by foil stamping using the katazome (stencil dyeing) technique, and the inside is colored with yuzen dyeing. The pale wisteria color of the base color has patterns drawn in light colors, and the luster of the foil and the understated shine of the base color are elegant. From the expression of the leaves, you can tell it's an *aoi* (hollyhock) flower. Lining: Silk. Yuki-tsumugi (pongee) with a *yukiwa* (snow ring) pattern, pale purple with a subdued tone. Obi core is used for both the outer and lining fabrics, so it has a moderate firmness and softness. String: Leather string with a leather charm. #KaishiProtectionHolder
