Norens :: Reading Geisha Doorway Noren

Reading Geisha Doorway Noren

The Reading Geisha adjusts her hair while studying a handwritten text. She may be working to commit stanzas from an epic poem to memory, or doing the last minute check of her lines before staging a performance. In Japanese culture, geisha women enjoy a special place. They are cultural staples, learned in the classical and fine arts, and skilled in the art of conversation. Geishas are usually hired as companions, and endeavor to captivate their clients with their outgoing and knowledgeable personalities. Their performances in music, poetry and on stage are mesmerizing. In this fine representation, the Reading Geisha is adorned in a colorful kimono, the entire scene presented in earthy, autumnal tones that give this noren a warm feeling. She is silhouetted against a white circle that looks as if it could be an abstract moon or the spotlight of a stage. Our Japanese Doorway Curtains are sewn in a durable cotton-rayon blend and are easy to install in any standard doorway; simply hang them with a standard tension rod. Creative decorators often use two or more norens around their home or place of business to cover large entryways or create special themes. No matter the environment, our norens are sure to delight your guests and start a conversation. Bamboo pole not included.
