From the textile experts at Kamawanu comes this series of vividly designed and beautifully illustrated tenugui - multipurpose textiles that have been used for centuries as towels, accessories, gift wraps, souvenirs, wall art, and more. This reversible collection is dyed using the traditional chusen method first practiced during Japan's Meiji era more than a century ago. Available in more than a dozen eye-catching varieties.
Please note: Tenugui are purposefully designed without hems, which means that some initial fraying is normal. Do not pull loose threads; instead, trim them with scissors. The frayed edge will develop a natural fringe over time.
About Tenugui A tenugui is a thin Japanese textile that typically measures 35 cm in width and 90 cm in length. Like furoshiki, tenugui can be used to wrap gifts and other items, but they have many more uses besides: In some households, tenugui function as absorbent and fast-drying towels and washcloths, and their vibrant patterns make them well-suited to decorative roles as table runners, placemats, wall hangings - the sky’s the limit! For this reason, tenugui are often given as gifts or souvenirs by travelers returning from Japan.
Materials: Cotton Dimensions: 35.5" L x 13" W Care: As this product is hand-dyed, it may experience some color loss or bleeding . Hand wash separately with cold water and mild detergent. Note that the edges of the tenugui are seamless, meaning that either end will initially fray with use. The fraying process will stop after a small fringe forms; in the meantime, trim any loose strings with scissors. Tokyo, Japan

This simple wooden hair tie is both charming and sustainable. Irresistibly smooth and multifaceted, they are lovingly crafted from wood recovered through sustainable tree thinning practices.
About Tsukihihoshi In the early 20th century, the country of Japan planted large swathes of cedar and cypress trees to help increase their domestic timber industry. Unfortunately, these non-native varieties made it difficult for native deciduous trees to grow reducing food sources for wildlife and increasing the chance of landslides in the process. Today, Tsukihoshi repurposes these trees into beautiful objects that take on a second life in the city.

For those looking for inspiration or inner peace, a moment of quiet can make a world of difference. Elemense incense infuses the air with aromatic spirits that draw your senses into the transcendent world of contemplation. Watch as the incense smoke coils and extends around you. Listen to the quiet fall of ash as time slowly burns through the stick. Feel the fragrance gently enveloping you, transporting you into another world. With smoky scents of agarwood, cedarwood, sandalwood, and hinoki, the purifying fragrance of Kiyobi incites the spirit to banish negative thoughts. Elemense incense sticks are thicker width than normal Japanese incense, bringing an intense scent reminiscent of palo santo. Each box contains 40 sticks of incense packed in a wooden tray with a specially designed metal burner. About Elemense Written by a Japanese monk over 600 years ago, “The Ten Virtues of Koh” detailed the benefits and properties of Koh-do, the refined art of incense. Elemense’s incense collection takes its inspiration from this storied tradition with three fragrances designed to cultivate serenity and inner peace through scent. This collection uses Japanese scents traditionally associated with relaxation, such as hinoki, and oakmoss, to cultivate an environment for meditation, prayer, and contemplation. Materials: Agarwood, Cedarwood, Sandalwood, and Hinoki Dimensions: Length: 6.75” Width: 2.5" How to Use: Light the tip of the incense and blow out the flame immediately. Keep away from flammable objects. Tokyo, Japan

As tea-making has become an art form over the centuries, so have matcha bowls themselves become works of art. The organic, undulating shape of traditional matcha bowls is designed to create the smooth, frothy consistency beloved by tea enthusiasts. Because of its essential role in the Japanese tea ceremony, a tea bowl is traditionally considered one of the most graceful and treasured items in your home. A jade-green crackled glaze coats the smooth surface of this piece, pooling in the bottom like the final sip of matcha.
How to Use: To prepare matcha, pour boiling water into the tea bowl and allow to cool slightly. Add ceremonial-grade matcha using a bamboo ladle. Using a chasen (bamboo whisk), whisk vigorously in an "M" shape until the matcha reaches a creamy froth. Sip directly from the bowl. For best results, use ceremonial-grade matcha, a bamboo ladle, and an 80- or 100-tip chasen.
Materials: Clay, food-safe glaze Dimensions: 5.3" D x 3.1" H Care: Owning a matcha bowl requires thoughtful handling and care . Because of their handmade quality, these bowls are not suitable for the microwave or dishwasher and should be rinsed and thoroughly dried immediately after use. Be careful to avoid rapid changes in temperature as it may encourage glaze cracking. Shika, Japan

Meaning “morning dew” in English, Asatsuyu is a gyokuro tea that's prized for its rich flavor, exceptional aroma, and limited availability. Like our matchas, Asatsuyu is carefully shade-grown prior to harvesting.

What to expect from Asatsuyu: Dark green tea leaves that produce a slightly viscous and sweet cup rich in umami flavors like miso and nori seaweed.
