A Refined Tenugui Imbued with Strength and Sophistication
The "Benkei-Goshi" (弁慶格子) is a traditional lattice pattern originating from the costume worn by Musashibo Benkei in the famous Kabuki play, "Kanjincho" (勧進帳).
This pattern, simple yet powerful, possesses a structural beauty that embodies both formality and sophistication. It has long been cherished as a design that symbolizes Edo culture.
When displayed as a tapestry or wall decoration, it creates a "dignified presence" in your space.
This tenugui is also recommended for everyday use as a hand towel or dishcloth, or as a wrapping cloth and gift-wrapping item.
"Rien-zome" (梨園染) - A Chusen Dyeing Brand
Rien-zome is a brand by Todaya Shoten, a long-established company founded in the Meiji era.
Chusen (注染) is a unique Japanese traditional dyeing technique characterized by its vibrant, double-sided dyeing achieved by pouring dye onto the fabric. The beauty of the bleeding and blurring effects is a handcrafted quality that cannot be replicated by machine dyeing.
Rien-zome tenugui are highly absorbent and quick-drying, making them perfect for daily use. They become softer with each wash, conforming to your skin, allowing for long-term enjoyment.
The designs range from traditional patterns that evoke the spirit of Edo to modern motifs that suit contemporary lifestyles. Combining practicality and design, they make excellent gifts.
