eterble is pleased announce the new release of “furoshiki”, a traditional Japanese multi-use wrapping cloth, from this March. The product is perfect for wrapping potluck for home parties, a gift idea for Mother’s Day. Orders will be available online from March 2023.

Inspired from beautiful art and architecture of Spain and Portugal, which is also the inspiration for the eterble’s first collection, eterble’s “furoshiki” displays the geometric patterns mimicking the tile decorations spread across the streets of Portugal.

“Furoshiki”, a traditional Japanese wrapping cloth with a wide range of possible uses, is an item that can be enjoyed in a variety of situations depending on the arrangement, such as wrapping a lunch box, a bottle of wine or sake, or be used as a shoulder bag.

The eterble “furoshiki” wrapping cloths are made in a size suitable for wrapping items of various shapes and sizes, and can also be enjoyed as a tablecloth when unfolded.

The “eterble fabric” used as the material of the “furoshiki” is a recycled polyester fabric originally developed by eterble. It is made from tablecloths that can no longer be rented out to first-class hotels, wedding halls, and party venues due to scratches and stains.

Once the tablecloths are collected, they are sorted by its color, cut in pieces, spun into threads, and woven into recycled fabrics at a weaving factory.

World Service Inc., the largest party rentals company that rents tablecloths to a number of prestigious hotels, had been generating approximately 20 tons of tablecloth waste annually, and the “eterble fabric” is created as a solution to the problem in order to reduce them.

Orders available online from March 2023

The “furoshiki” wrapping cloth, which is easy to use in everyday life, was created out of the desire for people to casually enjoy eterble’s high-quality recycled fabrics in the daily lives.

Available in three colors (Vanilla, Cacao, and Aqua), and the geometric patterns that emerge slightly with a gentle texture are designed to make an impression while also blending naturally into a variety of settings.
