Rienzome Tenugui Cloth with Edo Kiriko Glass (915)
Description
Edo Kiriko
Edo Kiriko is a craft from the edo period when glassware started to flourish in Japan and were crafted in beautiful colors and designs. This tenugui portrays them almost as beautiful as they are in real life!
"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.
