A 1,300-Year Tradition

Furoshiki, a simple yet versatile fabric, has been used in Japan for over 1,300 years. Though its name has evolved, its form and purpose remain unchanged, carrying the wisdom of past generations.

The History of Furoshiki

Furoshiki has two historical roots, primarily as a wrapping cloth. Since the Nara period (710–794), fabrics called tsutsumi were used to store valuables. By the Kamakura period (1192–1338), koromozutsumi emerged, evolving into the furoshiki we know today. Though the name has shifted over time, the tradition endures.
