Sudden Shower.
This Tenugui cloth from Rienzome features a checkered pattern in beige color, which reminds to the favor Burberry designs. However, in the Japanese culture, this pattern, famous in the Kabuki world, represents something entirely different; The thick stripe represents the cities, whereas the three narrow stripes represent the river - showing that everything is beautifully connected and harmonized. The design is said to be based on the old capital, Kyoto.


"Tenugui" is often translated as "Japanese towel", but this translation fails to cover their versatility and cultural significance. Tenugui are not only used as hand towels and handkerchiefs, but also function as fashion items, gift wrapping, souvenirs, sweat bands and padding (e.g. in the martial arts kendo), and of course as decorative items due to their often beautiful, funny or nostalgic patterns.

Please be aware that tenugui cloth by default never are hemmed, which allows them to dry very quickly.
