This is a "fukusa (silk cloth) for tea ceremony" (o^^o) This is a fukusa used for fukusa sabaki (handling the silk cloth) to purify the natsume (tea caddy) and chashaku (tea scoop). It's a fukusa that servers and hanto (assistants) always carry, tucked into their obi (sash) or at their waist. Please 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 also elegant to lightly wrap it in this fukusa and present it to the recipient while unfolding the cloth. We have carefully selected the fabric, with each piece being supple and easy to handle. m(_ _)m 【Size】 Standard size for tea ceremony fukusa. Finished size: 27.5 cm (height) x 28.4 cm (width) based on the pattern. Approximately 27cm x 28cm when finished. Sewn without a knot at the end of the thread. Please allow for slight size variations. 【Fabric】 High-quality silk, Jukou-ori, with a meticulously woven pattern of Genji Emaki (Tale of Genji scrolls) in a solid, deep scarlet color (a subdued, dark vermilion). Jukou-ori is a masterpiece that possesses a beauty and luxury unique to woven fabrics, not found in dyed ones. How about using it to spark conversation at a tea ceremony or incense ceremony? This is made without a core, intentionally, for fukusa sabaki, resulting in a supple and soft finish. Some people use it as a soft debukusa (a type of silk 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. Also, because it's large, it will be lightly folded in half for shipping to prevent creases. 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. #marunMAARUUN fukusa for tea ceremony
