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 patterns, size and weaving style, this 100% high quality Polyester towel can be used in a plethora of different ways. Originally, Furoshiki were used in Japanese thermal baths to wrap up clothes, but modern Furoshiki are not only functional but also fashionable, which makes them even more useful and versatile. Furoshiki is not only beautiful, useful and easy to handle, it also stimulates creativity and problem-solving skills. Using the multi-purpose and multifunctional Furoshiki can reduce waste both wrapping and shopping.
