An essential element of Japanese culture, the furoshiki is a traditional scarf that can cover and transport anything. It was originally used as a bundle to carry clothes or toiletries, but now its uses tend more toward wrapping gifts and carrying everyday objects. It came back into fashion as a mode of eco-packaging that avoids the use of plastic bags.
You can use them in the above ways, as a decorative object (hung on a wall, as table linens, etc.), or as a purse.
