Tenugui “Suzunari Puchi Tomato” – Japanese cotton cloth

---

Summer freshness in rich red

This tenugui brings the lightness of summer to fabric. It is made by the family-owned company HAMAMONYO in Yokohama – a manufacturer with over 75 years of experience in the traditional wet-print dyeing technique (Yokohama Nassen). The motif is hand-printed on a fine cotton fabric that is bleached without chlorine and specially developed for tenugui production. It is soft, skin-friendly, and pleasantly light.

The image depicts a lush tomato plant with densely hanging cherry tomatoes (すずなりプチトマト) glowing in vibrant red among lush green leaves. The composition is reminiscent of Japanese plant studies, but the colors and clear style create a particularly fresh and welcoming effect. The depiction conveys joie de vivre, harvest time, and the charm of everyday beauty.

Whether as a towel, gift wrapping (furoshiki), headband, table runner or decoration: This tenugui is versatile, easy to care for and accompanies everyday life with quiet quality.

The motif was awarded the OMOTENASHI Selection Gold Award in 2022 – a tribute to Japanese hospitality, craftsmanship and design.
