What is Furoshiki?

Furoshiki is a piece of square towel that people from Japan have been using to wrap gifts and carry groceries for generations. Due to its unique pattern, size and weaving style, this high quality 100% cotton towel can be used in a variety of different ways.

About the pattern

The arabesque, ornamental design of this Furoshiki collection is inspired from the stems and leaves of a creeper. The traditional arabesque pattern has been used for a long time in Japan for its auspicious meaning. The vines extend throughout the entire pattern, without interruption and are therefore a symbol of prosperity and longevity.

How can you use the Furoshiki?

The Furoshiki can be used as strong shopping bag using either a two or three knot method (see instructional video to learn how). The bag size and handles can instantly be adjusted to suit your needs. It can also be used as a thin blanket, or can be spread as a picnic or beach towel. The Furoshiki can even be hung on the wall as a decorative piece of art. Wearing Furoshiki as a scarf or a headband has also become popular among young women. It can even be hung on the wall as a beautiful piece of art or used as a tablecloth, the uses are endless!

Maintaining your Furoshiki is easy, simply machine wash 30 degrees Celsius and iron as needed. Furoshiki is not only beautiful, useful and easy to handle, it also stimulates creativity and problem-solving skills. Using the multipurpose and multifunctional Furoshiki can reduce waste from both wrapping and shopping.

Furoshiki is lightweight and can easily be carried in a purse or backpack, car, or even worn as a scarf or accessory; eliminating the need to buy shopping bags or use disposable plastic bags when shopping. We all forget our reusable bags sometimes, but when Furoshiki is always with you, you are never without a bag!
