The Lotus Root Tenugui Hand Towel features a vibrant yellow background with a playful lotus root motif, a beloved symbol in Japanese cuisine known for its health benefits. Handcrafted using the traditional Chusen dyeing technique, skilled artisans infuse dyes into the fabric by hand, creating a unique, double-sided design. This method ensures slight variations in color and motif placement, making each towel one-of-a-kind. Made from soft, durable Chita cotton, this towel is highly absorbent and quick-drying. Ideal for use as a kitchen towel, tablecloth, or even for wrapping bento boxes, the Lotus Root Tenugui adds both function and charm to your home. Gentle hand washing is recommended to preserve its vivid colors. Available as part of a complete set of artisan-made tenugui towels with various themed motifs and colors.

Please Note: Pre-washing traditional Japanese hand towels (tenugui) is essential to prevent color bleeding and soften the fabric. To care for your tenugui, hand-wash it in cold water without detergent, rinsing it multiple times if necessary. After washing, air-dry the tenugui in the shade to preserve its vibrant colors. It is also recommended to store the tenugui away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration. Following these steps will help maintain its beauty and durability over time.
