Nakagawa Seishichi Shoten was originally founded as a fabric manufacturer in 1717, in Nara, Japan. “Hanafukin – Asasashiko” (Flower towels with hemp patterns) is one of their latest products. These are traditional Japanese kitchen towels, and have very high water absorbability. The hemp patterns are believed to be an amulet against evil. “Hanafukin” will be available at Japanese design shop in the near future. Send us an email (submit(at)jpdesign.org) with the title “Hanafukin” if you are interested (no body text required). We will notify you when it is released.
