Japanese Tenugui – Shiawase Daruma

Cheerful Japanese tenugui with hand-dyed Daruma design

Add a burst of positivity to your day with this brightly colored Japanese towel featuring joyful daruma motifs. Hand-dyed using the traditional Sogi-zome method passed down since the Meiji era, this 100% cotton tenugui blends ancestral craftsmanship with modern flair. The daruma, symbolizing perseverance and good fortune, is a gentle reminder to keep moving forward, no matter the challenge. Perfect for wrapping, wearing, or decorating your space.

For easy hanging, consider a wooden tenugui support.

Note: Tenugui is a thin Japanese cotton fabric, intentionally unhemmed to dry quickly. If the edges begin to fray, just trim the threads—they’ll stop naturally after a few washes.
