Tenugui with Salt Crystals (963)

Salt Crystals.
A unique tenugui with 'sparkling' pattern that will bright up your room with its simple, but elegant design. As Japan's humidity makes it not ideal to produce salt, they collect it in salt fields and boil it in kettles to create crystals.

"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.
