Pandas at a feast in a Chinese restaurant

This tenugui depicts a cheerful scene in a traditional Chinese restaurant (中華飯店, chūka hanten) populated by cute pandas (パンダ) . Round tables, steaming food, happy faces, and a chef's portrait on the wall: The motif is both loving and playful, with bold red, beige, and black as the dominant colors.

The detailed depiction evokes festive meals in convivial company—with dim sum, noodle soups, fried rice, and plenty of tea. Ideal for anyone who loves humor, Asian cuisine, and pandas.

The cloth is manufactured by the traditional family business HAMAMONYO in Yokohama, which has specialized in the Yokohama wet dyeing technique for over 75 years. The cotton fabric used is chlorine-free bleached, skin-friendly, durable, and was specially developed for tenugui production.

The motif was awarded the “Gold Award” by the OMOTENASHI Selection – a seal for exceptional Japanese design and masterful execution.
