Read more about it below. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTenugui are very thin pieces of cotton fabric. You can use them for pretty much anything. While they are traditionally used as a hand towel because of their superiour absorption properties, you can use them as a table runner, wrap, head scarf (they are commonly used as a head band in Kendo), and even just as a decorative tapestry piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional tenugui have short edges that are unhemmed. This means they are frayed at the shorter ends, which is completely normal. The fraying will stop naturally and lock into place after a few washes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand made in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e33 x 98cm in size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnhemmed shorter edges, so fraying is completely normal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFraying will naturally stop and lock into place after a few washes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Todaya Shoten Rienzome\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in Nihonbashi in 1872, Todaya Shoten has been creating distinctive tenugui that blend traditional Japanese craftsmanship with bold, original design. Each Rienzome (their flagship brand) tenugui is made from high-quality natural cotton and crafted largely by hand, giving the fabric a warmth and character that machine production cannot reproduce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecially woven “Nioka” and “Wakamatsu” fabrics offer exceptional softness, durability, absorbency, and a refined feel that improves with use. Traditional Chusen hand-dyeing allows the color to penetrate deeply through the fibers, creating rich, expressive tones on both sides of the cloth. Hand-carved and precision machine-carved stencils are carefully selected to suit each design, ensuring even intricate patterns are reproduced beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRepeated washing over time softens the fabric and gently develops the color. This gives each tenugui a unique and evolving character. Combining heritage, craftsmanship and sensibility, Rienzome tenugui are both practical and beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRefer to the product care tab for full instructions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDo not purposedly pull on the loose frays at the end\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColour may transfer due to sweat or friction on first use\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHand wash in plenty of water separately from other fabrics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAvoid soaking in water\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium heat iron\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Todaya Shoten","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618138476740,"sku":"TG0015","price":28.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/3407\/7380\/files\/rienzome-tenugui-temari-and-flowers.jpg?v=1788670446","url":"https:\/\/www.majimelife.com.au\/products\/rienzome-tenugui-hana-temari","provider":"Majime Life","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
