“Tenugui” is a traditional Japanese towel used for anything—as a washcloth or dishcloth, but often as a tapestry, decoration, quilt, headband, souvenir, or for wrapping items such as bottles.
The "Rien-zome" brand was created by an authentic Tenugui producer named TODAYA SHOUTEN at Ningyo-cho, Tokyo. They have been producing a wide variety of Tenugui since 1872. They focus on a traditional hand-dyeing method called "Chu-sen." Also, they have had many great designs for years. Enjoy Rien-zome Tenugui, handmade by skilled artisans!
"Chusen" is a traditional method of dyeing using stencil paper. Since the dye infiltrates the cloth, the patterns appear on both sides. When the tenugui is used for a long time, the dye fades, giving it a well-aged look.
