Wa-taoru "Pyoko Gaeru"

Hopping Frogs – Japanese Lucky Charms on an Everyday Towel

This charming small towel is called 和たおるフェイス ぴょこガエル (Wa-taoru Face Pyoko Gaeru) – "Japanese Towel: Hopping Frogs". The design is a joyful nod to one of Japan's most beloved lucky charms: on a pure white background, small, bright green Kaeru (カエル, frogs) sit in pairs – one as a filled silhouette, one as a delicate outline drawing. Their name Kaeru is a popular pun in Japan, as it also means "to return" – thus, frogs are considered lucky symbols for a safe return home, the return of happiness, and money. Pyoko (ぴょこ) is an onomatopoeic word for small hopping movements and gives the motif a lively, playful character. A towel with a wink and cultural depth at the same time.
