Reduce waste by using these beautifully soft handkerchiefs from SASAWASHI.
Use as a replacement for tissues or a napkin for your lunch. Antibacterial properties of the fibres prevent unpleasant odours from forming and the gauze created from the SASAWASHI fibres will leave the surface of your skin clean and refreshed.
Choose between two styles; Navy or Striped
SASAWASHI fabric is made by blending Kumazasa fibres; grown in the cool highlands of Japan, with Washi paper. Washi is strong, durable and water-resistant used in traditional Shoji slidding doors keeping homes cool in summer and warm in winter. A sheet of these blended fibres is then slit into long strings of yarn, twisted together to machine weave or knit SASAWASHI yarn and fabric.

Brand story
Sasawashi brings things back to a simpler way of caring for the body that existed long before synthetic nylon cloths became the norm.
Made in Japan from a blend of kumazasa plant fibres and washi paper, it creates a fabric that’s naturally textured, breathable, and quietly effective — without ever feeling harsh on the skin.
These Japanese exfoliating and cleanses cloths lift away dead skin without that over-scrubbed feeling. People find they need less soap, as the fibres work efficiently rather than relying on heavy lather.
Kumazasa has long been valued in Japan for its antibacterial properties, helping to keep the fabric clean and comfortable over time.
Importantly, Sasawashi is made from plant-based fibres rather than petroleum-based ones — no plastic, no shedding microfibres, and a much lighter impact over its lifetime.
Less about harsh exfoliation, more about consistency. Less about adding more products, more about working with materials that are healthier close to your skin.

- MWMeg W.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars1 month agoBeautiful but a bit too big for a pocket
The Sasawashi Gauze Handkerchief is large and soft and quite absorptive. Unfortunately, t is a bit too big and bulky to carry around in my pocket. It also looks a bit like a flannel, so I only use this when I am at home. It still saves me from using single use tissues!
BBiome1 month agoHi Meg,
Thank you for your honest review! It's great to hear that you're finding the Sasawashi Gauze Handkerchief soft and absorbent, and that it's helping you reduce the use of single-use tissues at home.
That's very helpful feedback about the size of the handkerchief, thank you. It's great that you've found a way to make it work for you around the house, though.
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback!
