description Product Description
The vivid colors of this piece make it a stunning addition to any interior setting, whether used as a tissue box cover, tapestry, or other home decor item.
The cloud motifs (Kumodori) are accented with a silver pearl finish, adding a touch of elegance and luxury.
Chōjū-Jinbutsu-Giga (Scrolls of Frolicking Animals and People) is a famous ink painting handscroll passed down at Kōzan-ji Temple in Takao, Kyoto.
This historic artwork humorously depicts animals and humans in satirical scenes, reflecting the social climate of its time, and is often regarded as the origin of Japanese caricature or manga.
Even after 800 years, the playful rabbits, monkeys, and frogs still seem to leap across the surface of the furoshiki, breathing life and humor into the design.
The combination of whimsical animals and stylized cloud patterns creates a design full of storytelling charm.
※ Kumodori refers to a traditional Japanese decorative pattern that portrays the soft, flowing shapes of clouds using outlined forms and colors, often adorned with seasonal plants or flowers.
