Chusen Tenugui
A hand towel dyed the traditional way, with something worth looking at.
Finished using Chū-sen — the Osaka dyeing technique developed in 1887 that produces colour even on both sides through a single pour — this tenugui is printed with a lively pattern drawn from nature: ptarmigan, trees, human figures, and more, arranged with a lightness that makes the cloth feel like it belongs outdoors.
Practical in the obvious ways — wiping away sweat, wrapping around the neck — but just as easy worn tied to a bag, where the pattern does its quiet work as an accessory. At 31g, it adds nothing to a pack except character.
