Ginkgo trees were one of the very few things to, although damaged, survived the atomic bomb in Hiroshima. This tenugui displays the leaves that turn yellow, creating a beautiful golden road and indicating the feeling of autumn.

"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.
