A stylish cherry blossom tenugui painted in black
The design features a large cherry blossom pattern drawn in chic black ink on a pale milk-colored background.
It subtly conveys the signs of spring, yet exudes an urban and sophisticated atmosphere.
By reducing the number of colors, the outline of the cherry blossoms stands out more, making it perfect for creating a modern Japanese space. It creates a calm and luxurious feel that blends easily into your daily table or interior.
Not only can it be used to wipe hands and sweat, but it is also recommended as a spring gift, table decoration, lunch box wrapper, etc.
Traditional Japanese dyeing technique “chusen”
Chusen is a unique Japanese dyeing technique that has been around since the Meiji period.
It is characterized by creating a pattern using paper patterns and pouring the dye onto the layers of fabric, which allows the fabric to be dyed beautifully even to the core.
By pouring the dye from above, natural shading and blurring are created, creating a warm look that cannot be achieved with a machine.
It is unique to Chusen that you can enjoy beautiful colors no matter where you look because there are no front or back sides. The more you use it, the more its texture will increase, and over time you will develop your own unique taste.
