Decorative Packaging

Tassels once indicated military or social rank in most western cultures, but these days, they are used as decorative accessories. As they increased in popularity and complexity of design, they became a type of ornamentation. It’s fascinating that tassels seem to be found across cultures, social classes, and centuries. Remnants of tassels have been found on battle fields, on the outfittings of nomadic herdsman, and today they are used on home furnishings, as symbols of achievement and as invitation decorations. You might have tassels on your throw pillows, your living room curtains, maybe even your loafers. Tassels are everywhere!
