Details |
A Noren is a room curtain. Norens have been used in Japan for centuries as door curtains, wall hangings and window curtains.
They were originally used as restaurant and shop curtains. A Noren hung in a doorway signaled that the shop was open for business.
They are split down the center - allowing a person to walk through from one room to another.
