Founded in Osaka in 1966, Nijiyura creates tenugui using the traditional chusen dyeing technique, where layers of cotton are folded and dyed by hand-pouring color through the fabric. This method produces soft, blended tones paired with vibrant designs suited for everyday life.

Originally created as towels for drying hands, tenugui can also be used in many ways - wrapping, covering, decorating, or even sewing into handmade projects. Enjoy discovering your own favorite way to use them.
