---------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Cautions for using electrical products】 When using electrical appliances, please note that the voltage is different from that of Japan, which may cause malfunctions. Since the plug type is Japan type(A or B type), please check the voltage and use a transformer. Please note that a transformer is different from a conversion adapter. We are not responsible for malfunctions caused by use without a transformer.

【Voltage Compatibility】 When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.

【Plug Type】 Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type). Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.

【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】 A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements. A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage. Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.

【Liability】 We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Yagisei's Bingata Artist Tenugui Series 100% cotton, made in Japan Size: Approximately 34x90cm (two short sides uncut) "The Sea of Dancing Lionfish" is part of the popular Bingata Artist Series. This lively and fun piece depicts a lionfish and its colorful companions leisurely swimming through tropical waters. Chū-sen dyeing is a fabric dyeing technique in which a bank of glue is created in the desired area and dye is poured into it. Despite being done by hand, it is possible to create a variety of patterns, subtle touches such as small patterns, and unique colors. Furthermore, by utilizing techniques such as shading, it excels at expressing three-dimensionality and a sense of calm. Another distinctive feature of Chū-sen dyeing is that the dye is applied to both sides, resulting in the same pattern and color on both sides. Because Chū-sen dyeing is done almost entirely by hand, fabrics dyed using Chū-sen dyeing are less likely to be crushed, are highly breathable, and have a soft texture. [Bingata Artist Series] We have invited artists of Bingata, a traditional Okinawan (Ryukyu) dyeing style, to provide designs, and we plan and sell tenugui hand towels dyed using the Chū-sen dyeing technique. "Ryukyu Bingata" is the only dyed fabric that was born and raised in Okinawa, and is characterized by its vibrant colors that use pigments and stand out under the strong Okinawan sun. Yagisei's Bingata style Tenugui series is based on the Okinawan "Bingata dyeing" motif. These original tenugui towels are made using the chusen dyeing technique (dye) based on designs by artists. The intricate designs are difficult to reproduce using regular chusen dyeing, but we asked artisans with expert chusen dyeing skills to dye them, resulting in a one-of-a-kind multicolored finish. In addition to being used as tenugui towels, they can also be used as tapestries or table runners for interior decor.
