This is a "debukusa" (a type of silk cloth) used by the host during the preparation of "o-koicha" (thick tea) and for displaying the incense container after folding it in four. It is the same size as the "fukusa" (silk cloth) used for tea preparation, but it is made from slightly stiffer fabrics such as tsumugi (pongee), obi fabric, or kinran-donko (brocade). We hope you will find it useful in various schools of tea ceremony, according to your preferences. 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】 Standard debukusa size Made from a pattern with finished dimensions of 27.5 cm in length and 28.4 cm in width. The short side is a "wa" (fold). It is sewn in the traditional way without a knot. Please allow for slight size variations. It is about three times larger than the old "kobukusa" (small silk cloth) of the Urasenke school, and the amount of fabric is four times that of the "chitosebon-yo kobukusa" (small silk cloth for the Chitosebon tray). 【Fabric】 Pure silk. The material is obi fabric. It is thin, making it a light debukusa. It has a subdued orange color, a calm luster, and a subtle elegance. It is made from 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" (Enshu Seven Treasures) fabric. 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 a luster. Since it is used for o-koicha and incense container display, I have chosen designs with beautiful weaves and patterns that have a story to tell when viewed. It is finished without a core for ease of handling. ❤️Since it is new, there are no creases. When using it, decide on the front side and fold it in four. Please note that because it is 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 are purchasing 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-Shin-Aru-Un Debukusa
