The Green Tea Tenugui Hand Towel showcases a vibrant design inspired by the Japanese green tea ceremony, a revered event rooted in Zen Buddhism that symbolizes balance, harmony, respect, and purity. Handcrafted using the traditional Chusen dyeing technique, this unique process involves skilled artisans infusing dyes into the fabric by hand, ensuring both sides of the fabric are beautifully dyed. The use of this technique results in slight variations in color and motif placement, making each towel one-of-a-kind. Featuring a rich forest green and light green hue, this towel is crafted from durable, soft Chita cotton, known for its excellent absorbency and quick-drying properties.
Perfect for use as a kitchen towel, tablecloth, or even for wrapping bento boxes, the Green Tea Tenugui Hand Towel adds both functionality and elegance to your home. Gentle hand washing is recommended to preserve its vibrant colors. Also available in a variety of colors and motifs, this hand towel is part of a complete set of artisan-made tenugui towels.
Please Note: Pre-washing traditional Japanese hand towels (tenugui) is essential to prevent color bleeding and soften the fabric. To care for your tenugui, hand-wash it in cold water without detergent, rinsing it multiple times if necessary. After washing, air-dry the tenugui in the shade to preserve its vibrant colors. It is also recommended to store the tenugui away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration. Following these steps will help maintain its beauty and durability over time.
