Yamamotojin Double Gauze Tenugui Black and Red Goldfish

In Japan, goldfish are symbols of good fortune and are considered lucky charms associated with accumulating wealth. They have also long been regarded as protective amulets, believed to take on misfortunes in one's place and protect oneself. This tenugui features a lovely design of black and red goldfish swimming amongst flowers and leaves. Made from a soft double gauze, it is highly absorbent and dries quickly. Take this with you when travelling as it is very light, or use as a day to day hand towel at home. Unlike traditional tenugui, all the edges of this tenugui are hemmed, typically of double gauze tenuguis. About tenugui Tenugui are very thin pieces of cotton fabric. You can use them for pretty much anything. While they are traditionally used as a hand towel because of their superiour absorption properties, you can use them as a table runner, wrap, head scarf (they are commonly used as a head band in Kendo), and even just as a decorative tapestry piece.
