Izumimonen

Tenugui - Sardine Print

Tenugui is a narrow, selvage-edged cotton cloth, typically cut to 90cm in length. Ubiquitous in daily life in Japan, it has many uses: as a kitchen/bath towel, handkerchief, bandana, wrapping cloth for gifts, and for carrying things. It is thin yet strong and dries quickly after washing.

This tenugui is made by Hirayama Seni, a textile mill founded in 1919 in Sakai, Osaka, Japan, the area known as the center of cotton textile fabrication for over 600 years. Thin yet strong cotton fabric made in Sakai is branded as “Izumimonen” and has been widely popular since the 17th century. Now woven by 60-year-old machines, the tenugui is printed with the traditional “Chusen” dye technique by master artisans. 36 x 90cm. 100% cotton.

Made in Japan.
