Raku ware (楽焼 , raku-yaki ) is a type of Japanese pottery traditionally used in Japanese tea ceremonies, most often in the form of "chawan" tea bowls.
 It is traditionally characterised by being hand-shaped rather than thrown; fairly porous vessels, which result from low firing temperatures; lead glazes; and the removal of pieces from the kiln while still glowing hot.
 In the traditional Japanese process, the fired raku piece is removed from the hot kiln and is allowed to cool in the open air.
 The familiar technique of placing the ware in a container filled with combustible material is not a traditional Raku practice.
 Raku techniques have been modified by contemporary potters worldwide.
While many people believe that the act of giving gifts during Christmas became a tradition due to the biblical story about how the three wise men brought gifts of gold, myrrh, and frankincense to the baby Jesus, these gifts were not the first winter gifts given.
 In fact, gift giving during the winter is an ancient tradition that can even be traced to winter-solstice celebrations before the famous birth occurred.
 During the ancient ceremonies of Saturnalia, which were celebrated for seven days beginning on December 17, Romans believed that their generosity of trading gifts would bring them good fortune in the coming year.
 In the beginning, these gifts were very modest and included things like wax candles, fruits and nuts, inexpensive wine, and lamps that were tied with a bit of holly to signify the return of light that would come with the passing of the winter equinox.
 Children would receive small items like terra-cotta rings and tiny dolls made from dough.
 Later, however, the gifts became more elaborate items like silver and silver objects.
A bojagi (Hangul: 보자기 ; MR: "pojagi " , sometimes shortened to 보 ; "bo "; "po " ) is a traditional Korean wrapping cloth.
 Bojagi are typically square and can be made from a variety of materials, though silk or ramie are common.
 Embroidered bojagi are known as subo, while patchwork or scrap bojagi are known as chogak bo.
Tenterhooks are hooks in a device called a "tenter".
 Tenters were originally large wooden frames which were used as far back as the 14th century in the process of making woollen cloth.
 After a piece of cloth was woven, it still contained oil from the fleece and some dirt.
 A craftsman called a fuller (also called a tucker or wa[u]lker) cleaned the woollen cloth in a fulling mill, and then had to dry it carefully or the woollen fabric would shrink.
 To prevent this shrinkage, the fuller would place the wet cloth on a tenter, and leave it to dry outdoors.
 The lengths of wet cloth were stretched on the tenter () using tenterhooks (hooked nails driven through the wood) all around the perimeter of the frame to which the cloth's edges (selvedges) were fixed, so that as it dried the cloth would retain its shape and size.
 In some manufacturing areas, entire tenter-fields, larger open spaces full of tenters, were once common.
Furoshiki (風呂敷) are a type of traditional Japanese wrapping cloth traditionally used to transport clothes, gifts, or other goods.
Melton cloth is traditionally made of wool and is woven in a twill form.
 It is thick, due to having been well fulled, which gives it a felt-like smooth surface.
 It is napped and very closely sheared.
 Meltons are similar to Mackinaw cloth.
 It is a very solid cloth in which the twill weave pattern is completely concealed due to the finishing processes.
 Because of its dense, quasi-felted texture it frays minimally or not at all.
 It is hard wearing and wind and weather resistant.
 Its main use is for heavy outer garments and coats and for blankets.
 In lighter weights melton cloth is traditionally used for lining the underside of jacket collars.
 It was developed in the Leicestershire town of Melton Mowbray, from which it derives its name.
 This town is the traditional centre of English fox-hunting, and black and scarlet hunting coats are traditionally made from melton cloth, due to its weatherproof qualities.
 In England not only is melton used for the scarlet hunting coat, an iconic symbol of the upper-class elite, but it is also used in black for the donkey jacket, an iconic symbol of the working class labouring man.
 Both uses rely on its weatherproof qualities.
Kente, known as nwentom in Akan, is a type of silk and cotton fabric made of interwoven cloth strips and is native to the Akan ethnic group of South Ghana.
 Kente is made in Akan lands such as Ashanti Kingdom, (Bonwire, Adanwomase, Sakora Wonoo, Ntonso in the Kwabre areas of the Ashanti Region) and by Akans in Ivory Coast.
 It is also worn by many other groups who have been influenced by Akans.
 Kente comes from the word "kenten", which means basket in Akan dialect Asante.
 Akans refer to kente as "nwentoma", meaning woven cloth.
 It is an Akan royal and sacred cloth worn only in times of extreme importance and was the cloth of kings.
 Over time, the use of kente became more widespread.
 However, its importance has remained and it is held in high esteem with Akans.
 The Ewe people especially those from Agortime-Kpetoe of Ghana also claim that, Kente which they also refer to as Agbamevor has always been their traditional cloth.
 According to their history, weaving was the skill they came with when they migrated from Egypt through Nigeria to their present location in Ghana.
 Per the oral history of the people, during the Ashante wars they captured some of their men who were skilled in the weaving of Agbamevor.
 These captured men were asked by their captors (Ashantes) to teach them how to weave Agbamevor; the Ewe kente experts instruct them to "Ke" meaning spread or open in the Ewe language, pass the waft through, and "Te" meaning tighten or press also in Ewe.
 For that reason, the Ewes believe that the name Kete originates from the method used to weave such cloths which is also the same name that has been corrupted into kente, as time goes on.
