Tenugui with Deer in Winter Landscape (1407)
Description
Deers on a snowy mountain.
This Tenugui cloth from Rienzome features a peaceful, snowy scenery with two deer enjoying their time in the gentle snowfall. Deer are considered messengers to the gods in Shinto - the Japanese religion, and are therefore often proudly portrayed on artworks.
"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.
