This is a "fukusa (silk cloth) for tea ceremony" (o^^o) This is a fukusa used for fukusa handling 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. Feel free to use it to match your attire or the theme of the tea ceremony. When presenting a noshi-bukuro (ceremonial envelope) or a precious item to someone, it's elegant to lightly wrap it in this fukusa and present it to them, unfolding the fukusa in front of them. We have carefully selected the fabric, aiming for suppleness and ease of handling. m(_ _)m 【Size】 Standard size for a tea ceremony fukusa. Made from a pattern with finished dimensions of 27.5 cm (height) x 28.4 cm (width). Finished size is approximately 27cm x 28cm. Sewn without a knot at the end of the thread. Please allow for slight size variations. 【Fabric】 Made of genuine silk crepe in a lovely peach color, with colorful temari (decorative balls) depicted using katazome (stencil dyeing). The color and pattern are perfect for the Doll's Festival (Hina Matsuri), so why not use it for your Hinamatsuri decorations? The material is very old, and although it's hard to see with the naked eye, there is some slight fading, but it's a lovely color, and the fading isn't noticeable. Please enjoy using it. It seems to bring an early "spring." This fukusa is made without interfacing for a supple and soft finish, specifically for fukusa handling. Some people use it as a soft debukusa (tea cloth). Weight: 29g = 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 to prevent creases during shipping. 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. #お点前用のお袱紗 (Click here to see a list of "fukusa (silk cloth) for tea ceremony" currently on sale!)
