With over 80 fukusa on display, the exhibition at the Asian Civilisations Museum explores trade and exchange between Japan, China, and beyond, and the art of gifting across cultures. 

The exhibition also features interactive touchpoints, including a digital interactive where visitors can customise their own fukusa and an exploration zone for tactile experiences.
