Tenugui (手拭い) is a versatile, lightweight Japanese cotton towel that has been a cherished part of daily life for centuries.
Hamamonyo Tenugui are crafted using the traditional Yokohama stencil dyeing technique known as Nassen (捺染). Made from a specially developed fabric called Wakaba, these towels showcase vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and exceptional dye quality. The eco-friendly production avoids fluorescent whitening agents, ensuring a sustainable and skin-friendly design. With over 100 designs available year-round and new seasonal patterns introduced regularly, these tenugui are as practical as they are collectible.
There are no set rules for using a tenugui. Whether you use it as:
A practical item for wiping or washing,
An elegant wrapping cloth for gifts,
Or a decorative piece to brighten your walls or table,
Optional Add-on: Wooden Hanger Display your tenugui as wall art with our specially designed wooden hanger. Made in Japan from natural wood, it's a beautiful and convenient way to enjoy your tenugui. Simply fold the tenugui along the hanger and secure it with clips or tape—no tools required.

Amazing hand cream and service
My son bought Yuzu Premiu hand cream for me on a recent trip to Japan and I LOVE it. Couldn’t find it for sale in Australia so ordered online from Nihon Kara. Postage cost was very reasonable as was the price of the cream. Plus small gift was enclosed. Prompt delivery. I’m so happy with Nihon Kara.
