Azuma bags, or azuma bukuro in Japanese, were created during the Edo Period by sewing together other traditional textiles such as furoshiki (wrapping cloth) and tenugui (hand towels). This azuma bag is the perfect size for wrapping up a bento or picnic lunch. The indigo color complements the contrasting raw cotton color.
Available in two shades of indigo.
