★The first "Tenugui" (hand towel) commemorating Yoshiharu Tsuge's 60th anniversary, "Nejishiki Sono Ichi"★
This is an original official product designed by Yoshiharu Tsuge himself. Original artwork was created specifically for Koreisha tenugui, with almost all of the details except for the characters hand-painted by Tsuge himself, making it a fitting item for the 60th anniversary (2014) of his debut. Experience the original artwork, not found in manga works, in your hands.
★The tenugui are made using the "Tenassen" (hand-dyed printing) method, which captures the original artwork in every detail★
The tenugui technique is called "Tenassen," and involves rubbing colored paste into the fabric with a spatula. This method allows for the creation of intricate patterns that would be difficult to achieve with the traditional chusen dyeing technique. Normally, this method results in a white reverse side, but Kougeisha's contracted workshop in Shikoku meticulously prints each piece, eliminating these issues. Please experience the meticulous manufacturing process for yourself.
