Tenugui Onigiri

The Onigiri tenugui is decorated with large stylised onigiri, recognisable by their triangular shape, white rice and black nori seaweed wrapping. The motifs stand out against a warm beige background, creating a simple, graphic and charming design.

An onigiri is a Japanese rice ball, usually shaped by hand and often wrapped in a sheet of nori. Easy to carry, it is very popular in Japan for lunches, picnics and meals on the go.

A tenugui (手拭い) is a thin Japanese cotton towel that is lightweight, absorbent and easy to carry. In Japan, it has been used in everyday life for generations.

Versatile and practical, this tenugui can be used as a hand towel, small towel, reusable wrapping, wall decoration or accessory. Its food-inspired pattern is particularly well suited to a kitchen and it can also be used to wrap a lunch box or small objects.

Thanks to its lightweight and compact format, it dries quickly and fits easily into a bag. Its onigiri pattern also makes it a lovely gift for anyone who appreciates Japanese food, culture and design.
