Kayaori Kitchen towel | Mt. Fuji
This dishcloth is made from mosquito netting fabric folded into the shape of Japan's tallest mountain, Mount Fuji. The white sections represent snow and clouds.
Kaya-ori, a traditional craft from Nara, is a coarse, lightweight fabric used in mosquito nets (kaya), which has been passed down since before the Nara period. Made from five layers of cotton kaya-ori sewn together, this dishcloth becomes softer with each use, offering excellent absorbency, durability, and longevity, making it ideal for drying dishes, wiping tables, and personal use.
Not only is it perfect for everyday use, but it also makes a wonderful souvenir, gift, or greeting for celebrations, housewarming, and other occasions. As a symbol of Japan, Mount Fuji is especially appreciated as a gift for overseas visitors.
Versatile Uses:
Ideal as a dishcloth or a chic table napkin, Kaya-ori adds a touch of sophistication to your kitchen and dining experience while celebrating the beauty of Japan’s landscapes.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the fabric's quality, wash it thoroughly in cold or lukewarm water to remove any starch before first use. Embrace the harmony of tradition and style, and let the spirit of Mount Fuji inspire your everyday moments
