The Onigiri Rice Ball Tenugui Hand Towel brings a playful touch to your home with its charming rice ball motif, a nod to one of Japan’s most beloved comfort foods. Available in navy or gray, the design captures the joy and simplicity of onigiri, from sesame-sprinkled triangles to fillings like pickled plum or egg yolk.

Hand-dyed using the traditional Chusen technique, each towel is crafted by skilled artisans who infuse the dyes directly into the cotton. This process gives the fabric a soft texture and ensures the pattern appears beautifully on both sides. Made from durable Chita cotton, the towel is highly absorbent and quick-drying, making it a versatile addition to the kitchen or table. Use it as a hand towel, table accent, or bento wrapper, and enjoy how it blends practicality with cheerful design.

Please Note: Pre-washing traditional Japanese hand towels (tenugui) is essential to prevent color bleeding and soften the fabric. To care for your tenugui, hand-wash it in cold water without detergent, rinsing it multiple times if necessary. After washing, air-dry the tenugui in the shade to preserve its vibrant colors. It is also recommended to store the tenugui away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration. Following these steps will help maintain its beauty and durability over time.

Tenugui

Tenugui is a traditional Japanese hand towel made from soft, lightweight cotton. With a history of over a thousand years, it began as a ritual cloth and became an everyday essential by the Edo period. Used for drying hands, wrapping items, or covering the head, its unfinished edges allow quick drying and easy care. Today, tenugui come in countless colors and designs, loved for their versatility as both practical tools and decorative pieces. Hand-dyed using the chusen technique, each one reflects Japanfs refined craftsmanship and simple beauty that remain timeless.

FAQ

Can I add a gift message to my order?

Yes. You may add a personalized gift message of up to 250 characters at checkout — it is printed on a card and included inside the package. Prices and order details are never shown on the card or anywhere in the shipment, so the recipient sees only your message and the gift itself.

Will my order be wrapped as a gift?

Yes. Every JOC Goods order is wrapped in a traditional Japanese furoshiki cloth before shipping at no extra charge — both gifts and personal orders. If your order includes many or large items, the furoshiki may be packed inside the box rather than wrapped around them. Prices are never included in any shipment.
