GIFT PACKAGING - SCARFHAIR ACCESSORIES 



A tradition straight from Japan, the Furoshiki trend is sweeping through Western countries and reinventing the art of gift wrapping. No more mountains of crumpled gift wrapping paper, immediately purchased, immediately thrown away, make way for durable and reusable!

At Omnisens, we fully adhere to this method of packaging, which combines pleasure for the senses and reduction of waste. This is why this year, we invite you to adopt this tradition with the help of your own scarf, in festive colors to match our limited edition SILK REFLECTS Christmas. Made in France, according to the Oeko-Tex charter, which is part of a logic of sustainable development, our deep blue and gold Furoshiki is offered to you in our Christmas boxes or available for sale alone to wrap your gifts.



WHAT IS FUROSHIKI ?

Originally, Furoshiki is a traditional technique of folding and knotting fabric, used in Japan for wrapping gifts, or for the daily transport of various objects (clothes, lunchbox (bento), various purchases, etc.). In Europe, the term "Furoshiki" often refers to the square of fabric used to make reusable gift wrapping, following various folding methods.

Infinitely reusable, Furoshiki is first and foremost a folding technique for wrapping gifts, replacing unfriendly single-use paper. Our Furoshiki Omnisens is 50cm square, which will allow you to easily wrap many small to medium sized gifts. Several folding techniques exist, depending on the object to be packaged.
