Japanese Spring with Sakura, Pagoda, and Fuji
This evocatively designed small towel is named Wa-taoru "Sakura Gojunoto Fujisan" (桜 五重塔 富士山). The motif combines several well-known symbols of Japan into a harmonious spring scene: delicate Sakura (桜), a striking five-story pagoda (五重塔), the serene Fuji (富士山), and birds in the sky. The combination of pink, white, blue, and bold accents creates a friendly, lively, and decorative impression.
Your Advantages at a Glance

Frequently Asked Questions
▸ What distinguishes Wa-taoru from classic terry cloth?
The double-sided construction combines a smoothly woven cotton front (which brilliantly displays the illustration) with an absorbent terry cloth back. Two functions in one towel – both aesthetic and practical.
▸ How do I care for the Wa-taoru?
Machine wash up to 40 °C, without fabric softener (which reduces the absorbency of the terry side). Tumble dry on medium heat.
▸ What is the Wa-taoru intended for?
As an everyday, hand, or guest towel; also ideal for travel due to its compact size. The terry cloth back gently dries hands and face, while the front showcases the motif.
Crafted by HAMAMONYO, since 1948 in Yokohama. The meticulous Japanese craftsmanship ensures a pleasant feel, good absorbency, and everyday quality.

Care and instructions
- Wash:Washable up to 40 °C.
- Recommendation:A laundry net is ideal! It prevents zippers or buttons on other garments from pulling threads out of the terry cloth side ("thread puller").
- Dry:Do not tumble dry. The heat could cause the two different layers of fabric to shrink unevenly, resulting in the cloth becoming misshapen. Simply pull it into shape and hang it up.
- Thread puller:Should a terry cloth loop come loose: Do not pull on it! Simply cut the protruding thread short with scissors. Since it is a woven loop, this will not create a hole.
- Softener:Use sparingly or not at all, as it reduces the absorbency of the terry cloth ("gliding effect" instead of drying).
