Japanese Tenugui – Hanami

Japanese tenugui in Hanami and Mount Fuji printed cotton

Bring Japan into your home with this sublime tenugui made in Yokohama, Kanagawa prefecture. This fine cotton towel is the result of a long process called Nassen, a traditional textile printing method. The colors are vibrant, the details incredible. Hanging or framed, this Japanese tenugui will look great against a wall or door. It features cherry blossoms and Mount Fuji.

For hanging, consider a wooden tenugui stand.

Note: tenugui is a strip of fine cotton fabric, usually measuring 34 by 90 cm. It has no folds or hems, so it dries quickly. If the edges of your tenugui start to fray, trim any protruding threads with a pair of scissors.
