Handwoven Turkish Towels/Scarves

Turkish towels, also known as peshtemals, have been an integral part of Turkish culture for centuries. These towels were originally used in Turkish baths, or hammams, and were designed to dry the body quickly while also being lightweight and easy to carry around.

Today, Turkish towels have gained worldwide popularity because of their softness, absorbency, and versatility. They are made from high-quality, extra-long cotton fibers that are tightly woven, which makes them durable and long-lasting.

One of the unique features of Turkish towels is their ability to become softer and more absorbent with each wash. This is because the cotton fibers used in these towels are known for their ability to expand and become fluffier over time.

Aside from their use as bath towels, Turkish towels have many other uses that make them a versatile accessory to have around. They can be used as shawls or scarves, tablecloths, wall tapestries, or even as a lightweight blanket to drape over the end of a bed. They are also great for outdoor activities like picnics or as a cover for strollers and patio furniture.

With their colorful designs and unique texture, Turkish towels have become a must-have item for anyone who appreciates both style and function. And since they are sustainably made in small batches using traditional methods, you can feel good about supporting an eco-friendly product that has been around for centuries.
