Traditional Japanese "wa" motifs inspire the design. Collecting five medals will form a three-dimensional Mount Fuji, and putting a small light inside will create a dreamy glowing Mount Fuji.

The Finisher Towel was designed to be comfortable to the touch with an easy-to-use simple design.

※Please do not put fire or candles in the medals as it will get hot.
