GRAPH Botanical-Dyed Japanese Imabari Towel by Kontex

GRAPH is an organic cotton Imabari towel by Kontex, made with carefully selected natural materials and finished with gentle botanical dyeing.

From the towel fabric to the name tag, GRAPH is made entirely with organic materials, creating a towel that is gentle on both people and the environment.

The yarn used on the gauze side is dyed with natural plant-based dyes. The soft Charcoal Grey is dyed with bamboo charcoal, while the warm Ivory is dyed with black tea. These natural pigments give the towel a calm, subtle colour tone that blends beautifully into everyday interiors.

NATURAL SOFTNESS WITHOUT SOFTENER

GRAPH is woven slowly on a vintage TOYODA loom, once known as one of Japan’s finest weaving machines. By weaving gently without placing unnecessary stress on the yarn, the towel retains the natural softness of cotton without relying on chemical softeners.

The towel is carefully washed over time with pure spring water from the Ishizuchi mountain range, water that is also highly regarded for drinking. This slow washing process allows the towel to absorb water well from the very first use.

Because the manufacturing process minimises damage to the fibres, GRAPH keeps its gentle texture longer than ordinary towels. It is a towel designed for those who care about the quality of materials, the feel of natural cotton, and the quiet beauty of everyday objects.
