Cotton Furoshiki – The Scallop, Vertical Columns in Orange and Teal

Semicircles, stacked in vertical columns, march across the cloth in a steady graphic rhythm.

The colour pulls from a confident mid-century palette — orange, teal, mustard yellow, burgundy and cream — arranged so each column carries its own dominant tone while the eye still reads the whole as one composition. The print has the optical pull of op-art without its severity; the curves keep it human. Look long enough and the columns begin to move slightly against each other, the way patterns do when held close.

A furoshiki belongs to the everyday — a cloth to wrap a gift, to fold across a low table, or to knot through a pair of wooden patchins and carry as a bag. The 50 × 50 cm makes a small day bag; the 70 × 70 cm, a larger tote. We hem each cloth by hand at the atelier.
