Originally, it referred to soft fabrics such as silk and crepe, as opposed to stiff fabrics such as Nishiki and Karaori. It can also be written as Hakusha, Hakusha, or Fukasa. A fukusa is a cloth placed over a tiered box or a gift when giving a gift. A wrapping fukusa is a cloth used to wrap money envelopes or wallets and other pocket items when giving a gift or condolence, and is made to be relatively small. In the Edo period, fukusa was considered informal in the world of clothing, and a kimono made from crepe was called a fukusa kosode. [Takeshi Endo] The fukusa used in the tea ceremony is used to wipe and purify the tea utensils, and is placed under the tea utensils when viewing them. Shiose is the best fabric, but habutae, nanako, and meibutsugire are also used. Colors include purple, scarlet, yellow, and karacha, with purple being generally for men and scarlet for women. The basic shape of the 30cm square used today was created during the time of Sen no Rikyu, and is said to be the invention of his wife Soon. The first time fukusa was used in the tea ceremony is when Nanpo Jomyo presented tea to the retired emperor Gofushimi (Chikamatsu Shigenori, Cha no Yu Ko Jidan). There are various types of fukusa, including cha-fukusa, tsukai-fukusa, dashi-fukusa, and ko-fukusa, but the way they are used varies depending on the style.

元来は錦(にしき)、唐織(からおり)のようなこわい裂地(きれじ)に対して、絹、縮緬(ちりめん)のような柔らかい裂地のことをさす。帛紗、服紗、覆紗などとも書く。祝儀の際に重箱の上や、進物の上にかけるのを掛け袱紗という。あるいは祝儀や不祝儀のおりに金包みを包んだり、財布などの懐中物を包んだりするのを包み袱紗というが、これは比較的小ぶりにつくられている。また江戸時代、服装の世界で袱紗は略式のものとされ、縮緬でつくった着物を袱紗小袖(こそで)といった。 [遠藤 武] 茶道で使用する袱紗は、茶器をぬぐい清めたり、拝見のときなどに茶器の下に敷いたりする。布地は塩瀬(しおぜ)を最上とし、羽二重(はぶたえ)、斜子(ななこ)、名物裂(めいぶつぎれ)なども使う。色は紫、緋(ひ)、黄、唐茶(からちゃ)などがあり、通常紫色は男子用、緋色は女子用とされる。現在使用されている30センチメートル角の基本形ができあがったのは千利休(せんのりきゅう)の時代のことであり、妻宗恩(そうおん)の創意になると伝えている。茶の湯において袱紗が使用された最初は、南浦紹明(なんぽじょうみょう)が後伏見(ごふしみ)上皇へ茶を献じたときであるという(近松茂矩(ちかまつしげのり)『茶湯古事談(ちゃのゆこじだん)』)。種類には茶袱紗、使い袱紗、出し袱紗、小(こ)袱紗などがあるが、流儀によってその使われ方は異なる。 [筒井紘一] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
