[In Stock] KASHIKO Kanazawa Kutani Ware Handmade Furoshiki – Hundred Flowers Lucky Cat / Two Shaku

A furoshiki designed by Kutani ware artist Satomi Kawata, renowned for her "Hana-tsume" technique. In pottery, "Hana-tsume" refers to a method of filling the entire canvas with floral motifs, often outlined with gold or platinum to depict subtle textural variations in the shadows. As this effect cannot be replicated on fabric, the artist has translated her meticulously drawn flowers into a bold design featuring a lucky cat. This is then meticulously hand-dyed by artisans at a century-old Kyoto workshop, resulting in vibrant colors and exquisite textures. Mashu is the in-house furoshiki brand of the Baba Dye Works in Kyoto. Established in Fushimi, Kyoto, in 1913 (Taisho 2), all products today are still individually hand-dyed by artisans using the traditional Kata-yuzen (stencil dyeing) technique.
