Rienzome Tenugui Cloth with Hiroshige's The Plum Garden in Kameido (485)
Description
Plum Garden.
This Tenugui cloth from Rienzome features a motif from the "100 famous views of Edo" woodprints from Hiroshige: The Plum Garden in Kameido. The famous tree "Syuryu Ume" drawn in the picture is widely known for being copied by the master Gogh!
"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.
