The Musubi Yumeji Takehisa Beans Furoshiki features a lively pattern of climbing vines, leaves, and bean pods on a soft sage green background. The flowing design looks attractive when the cloth is fully opened and changes character as it is folded, tied, or wrapped around different objects.
The original Beans pattern was created by influential Japanese artist and designer Yumeji Takehisa. The sprouting vines reaching upward symbolize growth and rising hope. Beans have also long been considered an auspicious motif in Japan and are associated with protection from misfortune.
Yumeji Takehisa was a prominent painter and graphic designer of the early 1900s. Although best known for his portraits, he also helped pioneer Japanese commercial design by creating illustrations and patterns for books, postcards, textiles, and everyday objects. His work combines the nostalgia of the Taisho era with bold shapes and colors that still feel fresh today.
Made from 100% cotton, this large furoshiki is soft, durable, and easy to tie. At approximately 90cm square, it can be used as a reusable shopping bag, travel organizer, decorative table covering, picnic cloth, or gift wrap for larger items. It is also useful for carrying clothing, groceries, boxes, and other everyday belongings.
Musubi is the furoshiki brand of Yamada Sen-i, a Kyoto textile company founded in 1937. The company specializes in traditional Japanese wrapping cloths designed for modern life.
