description Product Description
This tenugui features an inkjet print, with the design lightly permeating through to the reverse side.
It depicts the work of Tōshūsai Sharaku, one of the most iconic ukiyo-e artists of the Edo period. His art is renowned for its bold compositions and powerful brushwork, focusing primarily on portraits of kabuki actors. Although his career lasted only about ten months, Sharaku produced around 140 works that captured strikingly expressive faces and dynamic movements. His distinctive style of exaggerating the features of kabuki actors has continued to receive high praise even to this day.
Notes
- As this is a handmade product, slight variations in size may occur.
- Due to the nature of the dye, some changes in color and slight bleeding may appear. Please enjoy these as part of the charm of hand-dyed items.
- Colors may transfer if exposed to water, sweat, etc. Please wash separately.
- When ironing, use a low temperature and place a cloth over the fabric.
- Traditionally, both edges of a tenugui are left unfinished to allow faster drying and for hygiene purposes. With use and washing, the fabric naturally tightens, and any fraying will stop after a few millimeters.
