Tenugui is a beautiful, but practical piece of art dyed with an ancient dyeing technique called Shibori. Add it to your home to garnish or use in the kitchen. A Japanese Tenugui is a handy piece of fabric, always in gorgeous Japanese patterns, with an almost infinite amount of uses. It is one those endearing, everyday, handcrafted Japanese objects that once you know what it is, you simply can't live without.

The furoshiki is a perfectly engineered piece of Japanese design. Sure, to the lazy eye it's a sheet of fabric, but it's far more than that. It's an art, a craft, a useful everyday object, and a piece of traditional Japanese history. The furoshiki can be whatever you need it to be. In fact, in even just the tiniest way, it could be a very eco-friendly solution to our contemporary plastic problem.
