Tenugui are traditional Japanese cotton towels, flat woven, thin, and completely unlike a Western terrycloth towel. They dry fast, feel light in hand, and are versatile enough to use as a hand towel, kitchen cloth, headband, gift wrap, or wall hanging. Many people collect them for the designs alone.
This is a TOJIRO branded tenugui featuring the company emblem alongside a stars motif, originally used as a kitchen towel for drying dishes and glassware. It brings together two Japanese traditions - the tenugui cloth and the precision that TOJIRO is known for in their cutlery.
Care Instructions: Dyed tenugui may fade slightly during the first two or three washes, so wash separately the first time using a gentle detergent. After washing, squeeze lightly to smooth out wrinkles and allow the towel to air dry. Both ends are intentionally left unhemmed in the traditional tenugui style and will fray slightly over time - simply trim loose threads as needed. The fraying will naturally stop and form a soft edge.
