【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)
"Weeping Cherry Blossoms" is part of our popular Bingata Artist Series. This vibrant piece evokes the joyful arrival of spring. Chū-sen dyeing is a method of dyeing fabric 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. Because the dyeing is done on both sides, the same pattern and color appear on both sides. Because fabrics dyed with Chū-sen dyeing are mostly done by hand, the fibers are less likely to be crushed, they have excellent breathability, and a soft texture. [Bingata Artist Series] We have commissioned artists of Bingata, a traditional Okinawan (Ryukyu) dyeing technique, to provide designs for our tenugui hand towels, which we plan and sell using the Chū-sen dyeing technique. "Ryukyu Bingata" is the only dyeing method born and raised in Okinawa, characterized by vibrant colors created using pigments that stand out under the strong Okinawan sun. Yagisei's Bingata style Tenugui series is a collection of works designed by Bingata artists using the Okinawan "Bingata dyeing" technique (dye).
This is an original tenugui towel that we created. It features a complex design that would be difficult to reproduce using standard dyeing techniques, but we asked a skilled artisan to dye it for us, resulting in a one-of-a-kind multicolored finish. It can be used as a tenugui, or as a tapestry or table runner for interior decor.
