Our beautiful Kisetsu tenugui is a Zusetsu limited availability tenugui art print direct from Kyoto.
I love this tenugui! The design reminds me of how blissful it was to sit near the cooling Kamo river on a hot Kyoto day - it was so refreshing!
The scene makes me think of Kibune too, in the hills of northern Kyoto, where people seek the restaurants that sit over the river and the shade of the leafy trees.
The tenugui are made using old-fashioned looms in Japan. High quality threads are carefully woven with a little fluff for a long period of time. This creates a woven fabric that is finely textured and smooth to the touch.
These beautiful quality tenugui are mainly dyed with Yuzen dyeing, one of Kyoto's traditional dyeing techniques. Each colour has its own printing frame, and is printed layer by layer. This technique creates rich and vivid colour, and makes the beautiful design a truly lovely piece of wall art for your office or home.
* The Tenugui Wall-hanger Kit can be purchased separately here in store!
* This purchase does not include the frame, but you can read how to have your own one made on our About Tenugui page!
