About Sasawashi
Sasawashi was founded as a reaction to the wastefulness and ephemeral lifespan of the textile industry. Made from absorbent washi (Japanese paper) threads infused with antibacterial Kumazasa plant fibers, this innovative fabric contains natural deodorizing properties that prevent mildew growth and fiber deterioration. From room shoes to scrub towels, every piece in the Sasawashi collection stays true to its founding principles: comfort, longevity, and simplicity.

Kamawanu Tenugui - Sake Cup
$ 26.00
We are pleased to offer this series of vividly designed and beautifully illustrated tenugui towels. These multipurpose textiles have been used for centuries as handkerchiefs, gift wrap, napkins, and wall art. This collection is dyed using the “chusen” method, which has been practiced since the Meiji period. This method has a characteristic appearance due to the fact that the dye produces different shades of color depending on the weather, temperature, and humidity at the time of dying. These 100% cotton towels are reversible and the pattern appears on both the front and reverse sides.
About Tenugui Towels
A tenugui towel is a thin vibrantly-printed Japanese textile that typically measures 35 cm in width and 90 cm in length. Like furoshiki, it can be used for wrapping gifts, bottles, and other common items. It also makes an absorbent dish towel and washcloth. Tenuguis can also be purposed into table runners, placemats, curtains- the sky’s the limit! They are often given as gifts or souvenirs from travelers in Japan.
Materials: 100% Cotton
Dimensions: 35.5" L x 13" W
Care: Machine wash cold and line dry. With each wash, it is inevitable that the dye will fade and the cloth will soften. This is a unique quality of the chusen dyeing technique. As is normal for tenugui towels, the edges are plainly cut and not hemmed which may fray.

Sashiko Embroidered Coaster
$ 7.00
This special coaster is the result of a collaboration between artist Toshiyuki Fukuda and sashiko embroidery artisan Kenichi Ohazama. Using traditional sashiko embroidery with near-mathematical precision, each coaster features geometric patterns that combine twenty-first century graphics with Japanese folk art motifs. The sturdy textile is made from 100% cotton woven into a strong quilted jacquard weave that easily washes away spills. Each Sashiko coaster is individually cut from a larger textile, making each pattern slightly different from the others.
About Sashiko Embroidery
Sashiko, which translates to “little stabs” in Japanese, is a hand-sewing technique that originated in ancient Japan. Sashiko stitches were traditionally used to decorate and repair homespun peasant clothes in times where resources were scarce. Using geometric patterns with common motifs like waves, mountains, bamboos, or overlapping diamonds, sashiko combined decoration with reparation, with its resulting beauty demanding to know: why just mend and make do when you can mend and make better?

Drip Bowl
$ 48.00
The handmade Drip Bowl showcases two important parts of the making process: craftsmanship and spontaneity. Each piece is fired with a homemade “kiln glaze” that changes color in the kiln so that not even the maker knows what the piece will look like until it is finished. The result is a feathered effect that drips down from its edges like watercolor seeping through paper. At once colorful and serene, this artful bowl turns your weekly farmers’ market bounty into an instant still life.
Because Sakuzan pieces are made to order, some pieces may exhibit some discrepancies in glazing. The glaze features miniscule cracks: this is intentional and an integral part of the ceramic minou yaki aesthetic tradition.
About Sakuzan
Nestled in a small workshop in the mountain village of Toki, Sakuzan is a ceramic studio that consistently pushes the envelope of mino ware ceramic tradition. Every detail that defines Sakuzan tableware is designed to complement the food that will be served on it. From adjusting the rim of a cup to facilitate drinking to choosing a glaze that complements the type of food served, each piece is crafted with the user in mind. To hold each piece is to witness its formative dignity; to use it is to understand its functional beauty.
Materials: Clay

Care: Handwash with a gentle detergent and dry immediately. Microwave and oven safe. Not stovetop or dishwasher safe.

On this journey, all sense of time and orientation seemed to disappear as we snaked, sped, crawled, ambled, rocketed and twisted through mountain upon mountain, every turn revealing rushing rivers and glinting waterfalls only momentarily glanced.” — Hannah Waldron
