Rienzome Tenugui Cloth with Enchanting Chrysanthemum (874)

Kiku
Chrysanthemums are a widely used pattern in Japanese crafts. Since the Heian period, they can be found on everything from equipment and fashion to decoration. Chrysanthemum is not just very beautiful, but legend has it it gives you prolonged life expectancy!

"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.
