Furoshiki

Our custom furoshiki lets you carry 5-20 ropes... stylishly!  You can buy our furoshiki separately... or get them free with an order of 15 or more ropes! History of furoshiki Over 1,200 years ago, the Japanese washed themselves in public baths called sentō. However, leaving their clothes in a pile let them get dirty or mixed up with the clothes of other bathers. To keep them separate, bathers began bundling their clothes in square cloths called furoshiki. By the mid-Nara period (750 AD), they were commonly used. Gradually, furoshiki began to also be used to bundle laundry and goods to protect and transport them. As their use spread, they also were used to wrap gifts. Unlike wrapping paper, furoshiki are removed and immediately returned to the gift giver; furoshiki aren't considered part of the gift. We break tradition a little bit - our furoshiki are shipped in packaging to keep them bright and clean. And whether you’ve bought the furoshiki, received it as a bonus, or been gifted it
