Rediscovering Japanese Elegance: A Deadstock Furoshiki from the Showa Era

Vintage Japanese furoshiki with botanical crest motifs on burgundy cotton fabric

When we talk about Japanese textile culture, furoshiki stands out as both practical and poetic. This particular piece—a vintage cotton furoshiki from the late Showa era—reminds us of the quiet beauty that once lived in everyday objects.

Never used and kept in excellent condition, this deadstock cloth features a striking botanical pattern inspired by kamon, the traditional family crests of Japan. Rendered in crisp white against a rich burgundy background, the symmetrical design offers a timeless sense of balance and refinement.

Whether used for wrapping, display, or styling as part of a modern wardrobe, this furoshiki bridges the past and present with effortless grace. It's not just a fabric—it's a glimpse into Japanese aesthetic philosophy.

Available now in very limited quantity.
