Kobukusa is an indispensable tool in the practice of the Japanese tea ceremony, paricularly associated with the Urasenke school. It typically measures about 15cm vertically and 15.9cm horizontally, slightly longer in width. Sewn along three sides, it connects the front and back, while the remaining side (one of the shorter 15cm sides) is referred to as \"wa\" or \"wasa\".Kobukusa is employed to cushion tea bowls or utensils, or to spread out on tatami mats during the examination of tea implements. Thanks to its frequently exquisite patterns, kobukusa can also enhance daily living as interior decoration. Utilizing it as an accent beneath ornaments, beneath flower vases, or framed and hung on walls can evoke a stylish and refined ambiance.*IMPORTANT*Your order will be shipped from Japan and may be subject to import taxes, fees, and customs duties, levied by the customs office of your country, and such fees vary according to the customs regulations there.
