[Tradition] White shrimp ★Indigo dyed

The shrimp motif is an auspicious motif with long whiskers and a curved tail, which represents a long life until the person's back is bent. In addition, the shrimp's bulging eyes are associated with "happiness" and it has long been considered suitable for auspicious occasions.

This hand towel is a very bold design with a motif of several small white shrimps. Apart from the small white shrimps, the design is minimal and stylish, allowing you to fully enjoy the deep indigo color like the deep sea.

●Please understand that this product has a particularly large indigo area and is therefore prone to fading and color transfer.

This is a masterpiece dyed with a rich navy blue and lustrous indigo. Take a look at the stylish navy blue that was once popular. It is a very deep and difficult (see below) tenugui that is hard to come by anymore.

[★Please note: This product is dyed with "real vat dyes." The color will fade quickly at first, and will transfer to other items when washed. Therefore, please wash the item separately. Also, when new, the color may transfer to white fabric even if it is in contact with the fabric for a long time. After washing about 10 times, the color will gradually settle. We hope you will enjoy the aging process as if you were raising vintage denim.]
