Tenugui "Shidare Yumezakura"

The poetic elegance of the hanging sakura

This magnificent painting-tenugui bears the evocative name Shidare Yumezakura – “dreamy hanging cherry blossom”. It captures the unique beauty of the Shidare Sakura , whose drooping branches resemble a natural curtain of delicate blossoms.

The design unfolds a vertical display of blossoms in various shades of pink and white against a warm, light background. Small, yellow-green birds, celebrating the awakening of spring, can be spotted among the dense cascades of flowers. The soft green accents at the bottom lend the motif a natural freshness and depth. This composition exudes a tranquil, almost meditative atmosphere, transforming any room into a Japanese spring garden.

Your advantages at a glance:
  • Lightweight and quick-drying: The traditional cotton towel is pleasant for everyday use and dries significantly faster than classic towels.
  • Versatile use: As a companion for on the go, a decorative accent with our wooden magnetic strips or as a special gift with a Japanese theme.
  • Authentic from Japan: An original Tenugui from HAMAMONYO in Yokohama with clear details and traditional craftsmanship.

Manufactured by HAMAMONYO in Yokohama. The traditional Yokohama wet-printing technique ensures crisp outlines, fine details, and vibrant colors. This design has also received the OMOTENASHI Selection Gold Award .

Note on authenticity: As is typical with traditional tenugui, the short sides are unhemmed . This allows the cloth to dry faster. Slight fraying at first is normal; any excess threads can be carefully trimmed. The edge will stabilize itself after the first few washes.
