Description
This lightweight hamam towel comes in a range of colours, each combined with a warm grey stripe.
Generously-sized yet folds away to practically nothing - a fantastic travel towel. Perfect poolside when the temperature is soaring.
It folds away in its own bag to carry to the beach, which is just big enough to slip in your sunblock & sunnies!
From modest origins in the hamam (Turkish Bath) culture, flat-woven hamam towels are now a must-have accessory.
Much less bulky and lighter than a terry towel, a hamam towel or pestemal (peshtemal) typically weighs in at only 200 - 300g. Aside from their aesthetic beauty, hamam towels have many uses making them one of the most valuable home and fashion accessories. They are incredibly practical: super absorbent so quick-drying, light and easy to carry around and are an ideal solution for travel or holidays and are perfect for taking to the gym.
They are prewashed for softness and to kickstart the natural absorbency of the cotton, meaning they arrive soft, ready for use and can only improve with every wash.
Originally used in the bathhouses of Ancient Rome, they are traditionally crafted by skilled weavers in Turkey; these vibrant hamam towel collections move away from the classic designs of traditional pestemal manufacture towards contemporary elements of design, colour and texture.
