Description
Lion Dance.
This Tenugui cloth from Rienzome features a motif with a Lion Dance. Being introduced during the Tang Dynasty and becoming immensely popular after the Meiji Period, the dance is performed during many different festivals to ward off evil. The "dragons" will dance around the neighborhoods and bite people in the head for good luck!
"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.
