Book Furoshiki Experience
Traditional Japanese Wrapping Cloth
Japanese Wrapping Cloth experience
Furoshiki (風呂敷) is dating back as far as the Nara period (710-794 AD), when it was a custom to hold valuables for the Emperors.
Translating directly to “bath spread” (“furo” and “shiki” meaning “bath” and “to spread” respectively) and the practice of using these cloths to contain bundled clothes while at the sento (public baths).
Nowadays, furoshiki isn’t used much anymore, as it fell out of fashion in post-World War II Japan when owning a Western-style bag became fashionable.
However, they are very useful and beautiful, so join our furoshiki experience and learn the Elegance of Simplicity and this historical tradition.
