Japanese Dish Cloth - Premium Kaya Fabric (Nara Prefecture)
mbrace the beauty of Japan’s four seasons with this Shikisai Kaya-fabric dish towel set. Each towel is crafted with care, bringing together the expertise of three regions in Japan: planning from Wakayama, yarn dyeing from Osaka’s Senshu area, and weaving from Nara. The result is a collection that is both vibrant and functional, perfect for everyday use in your kitchen or around the home.
These kayagafu kitchen cloths are designed with a slightly thicker yarn, giving them a fluffy, voluminous texture. The unique coarse feel, typical of mosquito net fabric, ensures breathability while maintaining quick drying capabilities. Available in a range of colors, they bring a joyful, seasonal touch to your daily routine.
Versatile in use, these towels serve as hand towels, dish cloths, vegetable drainers, and even as knife blade cleaners that won't scratch. Once worn, they can easily be repurposed as kitchen wipes or dust cloths, making them a long-lasting addition to any household.
