A piece that feels the quietness of the night and the light of fireflies
A tenugui depicting the beautiful light of fireflies floating in the darkness of the night and the peaceful night scenery. Its beautiful design soothes the hearts of those who see it, bringing a moment of relaxation into everyday life.
The material is 100% cotton. The more you wash it, the softer it becomes, growing into a comfortable texture.
It is a convenient item that can be used in various scenes such as hand wiping, wiping dishes, eye covers, bags, and wall decorations with a neat finish.
The dyeing technique "Chusen" passed down from the Meiji era artisans
Kamafune’s tenugui is made using the unique Japanese dyeing technique "Chusen" which has been passed down since the Meiji era. By placing a resist on the fabric and pouring dye all at once, it is characterized by being reversible and usable on both sides.
During the handcrafting process, subtle “playfulness” is born in the colors and patterns, and the texture changes the more you use it. Each piece develops into a unique existence with a one-of-a-kind expression that grows more charming with use.
