A tenugui is a thin, vibrant Japanese textile as functional as it is eye-catching. When used as a towel, tenugui soak up moisture quickly and dry nearly as fast - thanks to the lack of a hem - making them handy additions to your kitchen or bathroom.

Add a tenugui to your wardrobe as a bold accessory, or repurpose it as a table runner your friends will love. Give a tenugui as a decorative gift, or grab one to dress up your bento box.  Try a tenugui for yourself and see why these versatile items are often given as souvenirs by travelers returning from Japan.
