This is a "debukusa" (a type of silk cloth used in tea ceremony) used by the host for the thick tea procedure, displaying the incense container after folding it in quarters, and other purposes. It is the same size as the fukusa (silk cloth) used for the tea procedure, but it is made of slightly stiffer fabrics such as tsumugi (pongee), obi fabric, or kinran-donko (brocade). We hope you will use it according to your preferences in various schools of tea ceremony. It can also be used as a mat regardless of the school. Please make your own judgment on whether it can be used based on the "preferences" or "rules" of your school. m(_ _)m 【Size】 General debukusa size Finished dimensions: 27.5 cm long and 28.4 cm wide, made from a pattern. The short side is a "wa" (fold). It is sewn in the traditional way without a knot. Please allow for some size errors. Compared to the kobukusa (small silk cloth) of the Urasenke school, it is about 3 times larger, and the amount of fabric is 4 times that of the Chitosebon-yo kobukusa. 【Fabric】 Pure silk. The material is obi fabric. It is a debukusa with a moderate thickness. It is golden brown, has a calm luster, and has dignity. It is made of high-quality, supple obi fabric without a core. I am captivated by the refined aesthetic of Enshu's design and have a diverse collection of the famous "Enshu Shippo" fabric, which is favored by the Enshu school. I hope you will keep it in your hand and cherish it, regardless of your school or path. It has a thin Nishijin-ori (Nishijin weave) texture and luster. Since it is used for thick tea and displaying incense containers, I have chosen designs with beautiful weaves and patterns that have a story to tell when you see them. I finished it without a core, considering ease of handling. ❤️Since it is new, there are no creases. When using it, decide which side is the front and fold it in quarters. Please note that because it is large, it will be lightly folded in half when shipped to prevent creases. m(_ _)m 【Discounts for multiple purchases】 1st item: Listed price + 2nd item: (Listed price - 150 yen) 3rd and 4th items will be discounted by 150 yen as well. ♡If you 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. #marun-ShinAruunDebukusa
