Rienzome Tenugui Cloth with Birds on a Lotus (286)
Description
Bird on Lotus.
This hand-dyed Tenugui towel features two Azure-winged magpie birds sitting on and flying around a Lotus; a colorful flower famous in japanese prefecture Hyogo, in Western Japan.
"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.
