More informations about this product
The Furoshiki is a square of fabric, which can be used to wrap various things, for transport, or as a gift.
During the Muromachi era, furoshiki was originally used to pack clothes in public baths (Onsen) and easily recognize them.
Today it can be used to make a chic gift wrap, an improvised picnic basket or a decorative fashion accessory, or, returning to its origin, use it to pack its practical belongings.
The Karakusa 唐草, Arabesque, is a motif imported from China in the Nara period (710-794). The Kanji 'Kara' 唐 stands for 'China, Foreigner, Tang dynasty (618-907)' and the Kanji 'Kusa' 草 stands for 'plants'.
Arabesques represent a plant in the process of growing, pushing, and spreading endlessly in all directions.
It has become a symbol of prosperity and longevity.
