Binchotan Charcoal Dishcloths, Set of 3, Turquoise Coral & Citrus

If you're looking to introduce a unique Japanese product into your home, consider giving the Nawrap Binchotan Dishcloths a try. These dishcloths are infused with binchotan (Japanese oak) charcoal, which is naturally anti-odor. This means your dishcloth, which is constantly damp, will last longer and maintain a fresher scent.

The dishcloths are constructed with 6 layers of material, providing extra absorbency and durability. During the production process, a temporary starch coating is applied to prevent the multiple layers from shifting. As a result, the dishcloths may initially feel a bit stiff or crispy, but they will become incredibly soft with continued use. To speed up the softening process, you can soak the dishcloths in boiling water a few times.

The dishcloths are washing machine safe, though the color will fade slightly, and the dishcloths will shrink by about 10 to 15% after the first wash. It's important to note that you should not use bleach or put the dishcloths in the dryer.

Nawrap, a fourth-generation family business located in Nara, Japan, began in 1930 as a mosquito net manufacturing company. Over time, the brand has evolved into a line of beautiful home textiles.

Binchotan charcoal is prized for its natural purification properties and has been used in Japan for centuries to naturally purify water and air. The charcoal in the dishcloths works to absorb odors that typically accumulate in the fabric, and it remains permanently infused in the fibers, so you don't have to worry about it washing out.

Each Nawrap product is made in Nara, Japan, using traditional Japanese weaving techniques. The resulting fabric is incredibly strong, absorbent, and quick-drying, and it becomes even softer with use.

The Nawrap Binchotan Dishcloths set includes three dishcloths in turquoise, coral, and citrus colors, with the reversible side in binchotan gray. The individual dishcloth dimensions are 13.5 x 13.5 inches (35 x 35 cm), and each dishcloth is 6-ply.

In summary, the Nawrap Binchotan Dishcloths offer a unique and practical addition to your kitchen. With their natural anti-odor properties, exceptional absorbency, and softening over time, these dishcloths provide a high-quality and innovative solution for your everyday cleaning needs.
