Niwaki Tenugui Cloth
Pickup available at Shop location
Usually ready in 24 hours
A cornerstone of Japanese daily life for centuries, Tenugui were traditionally used to dry hands or wipe away dust and dirt. Versatile, lightweight, and available in a range of pleasing patterns, ours are perfect for wrapping, carrying, or decorating just about everything.
Jazz up your bento box, mop your brow after a long day of pruning – or fold one into a teeny-tiny pocket square. There’s no right or wrong way to use a Tenugui – just an endlessly practical, sustainable slice of Japanese ingenuity to brighten up daily life.
Best usage
Wash by hand in cold or lukewarm water using a gentle detergent. No bleach, no hot washes – and definitely no tumble drying. Stretch gently back into shape and leave to air dry.
Tenugui are traditionally left unfinished at the edges, so some fraying is normal – simply trim loose ends to keep things looking neat.
