Made in Japan Noren Curtain Tapestry Japanese Black Cats

Nicely made with a nice design. Having admired the concept of the Noren for years when I have seen them in various restaurants the time came when I knew I needed one. If you are shopping for your first Noren, this is a nice selection, the art work is nice, clean, playful and simple. The fabric is basic, efficient and accomplishes what the Noren is set out to do, at a reasonable price.This Noren is currently installed between the kitchen and the dining area of our smaller sized house. Initial goal is to help contain the heat in the kitchen from the other portion of the first floor during the summer...the effectiveness of this is still to be determined since we just got it.A secondary benefit I appreciate is that it acts like blinders on a horse. It helps create two seperate rooms. I can sit in the dining room and my eyes don't wander into the kitchen area, it is a comforting feeling to be "contained" in the separate dining space. When originally built there is evidence the passageway where it is hanging had a door. It seems in modern times people are pushing towards open floor plans etc., If you try this out you will likely appreciate the separation of rooms especially when they have different functions, and this Noren is an effective way to make this separation more definitive. Good luck

I was pleasantly surprised at how pretty the design looked in person, They are not faded out at all but nice and vivid. Since the background is a neutral color, it will work in many decors. It's hard to decide where to display this, it looks good so many ways. Simply hanging on the wall as a tapestry, covering up the air conditioner unit in my laundry room, or as a doorway cover. We are cat lovers so this was a great find, as the price has gone down a few dollars since I purchased, I may get another :). I also think this would make a well received gift item.

It came very fast, it’s very nice quality, and was definitely worth my money!! I love it so much it’s so freaking cute 😍

I love this lightweight noren curtain, and the black cats are so cute. I have it at the entry to the kitchen, and instead of feeding the curtain rod through the top rod-pocket opening , I use ring curtain clips so that I can slide the whole curtain easily across on a spring tension rod because I prefer not to cut down the middle of the noren curtain to walk through like you see at restaurants, but I like it one solid piece. It helps reduce drafts if I have the kitchen window open and try to reduce cooking odors or give extra privacy.

high quality material and construction, great colors, admire the art, perfect size

This is so cute and perfect for my doorway. The only thing I would change is having the customer cut the fabric themselves. I am not to be trusted with cutting straight lines. Overall, it is really easy to cut and you can cut it to where you want it. I'd just prefer that it be precut.

Great quality, beautiful colors, fast shipping and great price

Looks beautiful, the pattern gives a sense of peace but the words on it are encouraging.

Très joli belle qualité

Sehr gute Verarbeitung. Made in Japan, top 👍👍👍

This item is fabulous I love it, the only thing which I would change is the width of the opening, it was too small for my curtain rod, but I still love it, great fabric and well made, great value for money.

黒猫が3匹、自由なスタイルで遊んでいます。とてもかわいくて、ついつい見とれてしまいそうです。猫好きの方には、是非おすすめです。

It arrives early, It is a beautiful piece, great colour and soft material. True Japanese quality!
