MATSU-NO-HA

"MATSU-NO-HA," meaning "Pine Needle" in Japanese, is a pattern featuring the pine tree—an auspicious symbol known for its vibrant green needles that stay lively year-round.

The refreshing white of the bleached fabric beautifully highlights the nostalgic pine green design, reminiscent of traditional decorative motifs.

"TENUGUI" is a hand-dyed rectangular cloth that has been used daily in Japan since ancient times.

"KOMON" means "small patterns" in Japanese, and this collection features a series of "TENUGUI" adorned with these traditional KOMON designs.

Many of these KOMON patterns are traditional motifs cherished by common people for over 100 years. Each pattern has its own name and meaning, carrying a unique story behind it.
