A premium quality100% natural linen hemp rope purpose designed with all the best qualities of Japanese shibari rope, asanawa, but with greater durability.

The rope is in a different league from traditional hemp and is far stronger than cotton.Linen hemp is likely to be suitable for those with a hemp allergy as it is used in clothing and bedding.Due to its flexibility and softness, this rope can be used as is without the laborious treatment often associated with natural fibres. Of course, a little of a suitable oil never does any harm.DELIVERY TIMES:Amazon.com does not state the correct delivery times.
