Collection: The Garden Collection

Our floral print Garden Collection is full of beautiful, vibrant designs for wrapping gifts or carrying items on the go. The 8 furoshiki prints are inspired by Keiko's childhood garden, her mother's memory, and the flowers of Japan.

The Inspiration

When working on our first collection, the memory of my mother’s garden came to my mind. It was always so exciting to see colorful flowers and buds on tree branches in early spring. In Japan, a new school year starts in April under the Japanese government fiscal system. When students begin a new academic year in April, we also see the iconic cherry blossoms. Since this is our very first collection, I wanted to create a collection that signified the beginning of our journey.

    It's reusable

    The United States produces 4.6 million pounds of wrapping paper every year, and half of that—approximately 2.3 million pounds—winds up in landfills. If every American family wrapped just 3 presents in reused materials, it would save enough paper to cover 45,000 football fields.

    It's functional

    Gift a Keiko Furoshiki on its own or wrap another present with one for a 2-in-1 surprise. Once unwrapped, a furoshiki can be used in a variety of every day ways: as table linens, a fashion accessory, or frame it and hang it on a wall. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

  • blue flower

    It's beautiful

    Our furoshiki are lovingly designed by Japanese-American artist Keiko Kira. The playful prints are inspired by her childhood growing up in Japan and invoke the seasonal colors in nature, of cultural celebrations, and the beauty and craftsmanship of everyday items.
