    If you're looking for a stylish and versatile hand towel, look no further than Tenugui! These traditional Japanese towels have been an integral part of Japanese culture for centuries, with a history dating back to the Edo period (1603-1868).

    Originally used as a basic piece of clothing or for wiping sweat, Tenugui gradually evolved into a versatile and multi-functional cloth. During the Edo period, Tenugui began to feature colorful patterns and designs, which eventually led to the emergence of the art of Tenugui-dyeing. This art form, which involves hand-dyeing Tenugui using various techniques and natural dyes, has been passed down from generation to generation and remains a cherished part of Japanese culture today.
