Handmade in the UK, these beautiful eco-friendly furoshiki are a brilliant reusable alternative to wrapping paper.  These simple to use festive fabric wraps are made from a 100% cotton with a natural seeded cotton cream backing and come complete with a red ribbon to tie up your gift.

Furoshiki date back to 710-794AD and translates as 'bath spread'. Whilst at the sento (public baths), the cloth would be used to bundle up a bathers' clothes. They were later used to wrap lunches and doubled as a table mat. They were also used for merchants to transport there wares and to protect and decorate a gift. 

Furoshiki are now making a comeback as reusable Gift Wrap for the eco-conscious consumer.  There are many ways to tie them to wrap a gift - we supply them with a length of organza ribbon, making it very easy to gather the material and fix with the ribbon tied into a bow. The cloth is double sided and can be re-used over and over between family members and friends eliminating the need to keep buying wrapping paper. Should it ever become necessary they will compost as they are 100% cotton. They can also be washed and ironed.

Furoshiki also make a beautiful gift just as they are.... and are supplied with a (recyclable) information card for the recipient.
