A tenugui towel that evokes the summer atmosphere, dyed with the light of fireflies floating in the night sky.
The gradation from white to indigo softly expresses the light of fireflies twinkling in the darkness of night. The blurred dyeing technique of Chusen imbues it with delicate warmth, projecting a fantastical summer landscape into your daily life.
The design, which makes you feel the coolness and transience of a summer night forest, envelops you in the tranquility of nature with a sense of summer coolness every time you look at it.
Try decorating your walls to enjoy the seasonal colors, or use it as an everyday cloth for tissue boxes or placemats to feel the summer.
Chusen: A Traditional Japanese Dyeing Technique
Chusen is a unique Japanese dyeing technique that has been around since the Meiji era.
It is characterized by its beautiful dyeing that penetrates to the core of the fabric by creating patterns with stencils and pouring dye over multiple layers of cloth.
By pouring the dye from above, natural blurring and bleeding occur, resulting in a warm expression that cannot be achieved by machines.
Chusen is unique in that it has no front or back, allowing you to enjoy beautiful colors from any angle. The texture improves with use, and your own unique character develops over time.

[Care Instructions]
For fraying at the ends, trim the long frayed parts with scissors. The fraying will settle down and become less prone to fraying after a few washes (2-3 times).
[Handling Precautions]
* To preserve the soft texture of the fabric, the finishing press is applied lightly, so some wrinkles may remain.
* There may be some color fading. Please avoid washing with white items for the first few washes (2-3 times).
* Do not use bleach (chlorine-based) detergents.
* Due to the Chusen dyeing process, the color and pattern of the product may vary slightly.
