In a world that embraces imperfection and history, vintage textiles have become more than just materials—they’re stories. This mid-Showa era Japanese cotton furoshiki is no exception.
Measuring 127cm × 114cm (50 × 45 inches), this large furoshiki was originally used for wrapping, but its sun-faded texture and kanji-printed edge now carry a quiet beauty only time can create. The soft discoloration tells of decades past, while the bold typography—“Gunze Chihou Renrakukai”—hints at its origin in mid-century Japanese industry.
Whether you hang it on the wall as a textile artwork, drape it as a tablecloth, or cut and reshape it into a remake project, this piece is ready for a second life. The tightly woven cotton is ideal for crafting bags, cushion covers, or even modern garments with a vintage soul.
If you’re drawn to the charm of wabi-sabi, to pieces with texture, patina, and a whisper of history—this furoshiki might be what your home or next creative project needs.
