The Emptea Sei is a deep green fukusa, crafted from pure silk and essential for Japanese tea ceremonies. Artisans in Kyoto skillfully create this cloth using high-quality Niigata silk and the traditional Yuzen dyeing technique. Designed to purify utensils and examine tea equipment, the fukusa's ideal thickness allows for graceful folding, reflecting both beauty and functionality. Its even, deep green color, reminiscent of fresh tea leaves, is achieved without dye bleeding around the logo.
Authentically crafted and shipped from Japan.
First batch pre-orders will begin shipping around late October.
