Tenugui - Hide and Seek

A charming Tenugui depicting the antics of a beloved pet cat peeking through a Tokusa-gaki style bamboo fence. The autumn leaves gently descend to the ground like confetti, heralding the onset of winter.

Bring a touch of whimsical minimalism to your home with this delightful Tenugui, that befits a cat's abounding human-like personality.

Traditionally tenugis were used as hand towels. This humble fabric has a range of uses in modern life. Use it as a fashion accessory, an eco-friendly option to wrap a gift or even as a piece of art to adorn your home.

Produced by skilled artisans on hand woven cotton, using a traditional hand dyeing method called chusen. Chusen is a 300-year-old technique that combines bleached cotton and resist paste using katagami (paper) stencils to create colourful patterns.

Wooden frame not supplied.
