Tenugui Red and Black Shochiku

This Japanese cotton tenugui features a stylised Shōchiku plum blossom design. The large white flower stands out against a bold red and black geometric composition, creating a striking style that combines traditional Japanese inspiration with a contemporary appearance. In Japan, plum blossoms are associated with perseverance, renewal and the arrival of spring.

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, it can be used for drying your hands, wrapping a bento box, decorating a table or hanging on a wall as textile decoration. It can also be worn as a small scarf or headband, or used as reusable gift wrapping.

Its lightweight fabric dries quickly and is easy to carry in a bag. With its bold red and black floral design, this tenugui also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates Japan, Japanese culture and traditional textiles.
