Kikko Long Table Runner
This kikko long table runner showcases exquisite Japanese craftsmanship, adding elegance to any setting. Use it alone or with a tablecloth, or place it on a sideboard, chest, or bed to enhance the space.
The kikko pattern, named for its resemblance to a tortoise shell, symbolizes longevity. Often combined with other motifs within a hexagonal shape, it has been used for centuries in clothing and furnishings as a good omen. In Japan, the turtle is revered for its longevity, as reflected in the saying, “A crane lives for a thousand years, a turtle lives for ten thousand years.
The tassels at each end make these table runners unique. Dyed to match the runner’s pattern and braided by hand, they complement its radiant beauty, adding an extra touch of elegance to the table.
The fabric is double-lined and can be used on both sides. It is sturdy and durable and also water-resistant, making it easy to care for. In case of any kind of soiling or staining, lightly tap the fabric with a moistened towel to remove the dirt.
This piece features intricate detailing with gold thread. Due to the nature of gold thread, polyester is included in its composition, while all colored threads remain pure silk, ensuring a refined finish.
The runner may have folding creases when removed from the box. To smooth them out, place a thin cloth over it and gently iron.
