永楽屋本店（永楽屋細辻伊兵衛商店）

Eirakuya began in 1615, at the start of the Edo period, making and selling tenugui hand towels and furoshiki wrapping cloths. The dyeing itself is presented as a process: the official site has a dedicated page showing how an Eirakuya towel is dyed. Patterns follow Kyoto's annual events and the twenty-four solar terms, with seasonal recommendations updated by term — visit in a different season and the patterns differ. The Maruyama Sakura towel costs ¥3,740 including tax; Garyu costs ¥3,850.
