Organic Cotton Bath Towel - Flat Weave
Organic Cotton Bath Towel - Flat Weave
These items are currently on sale, as they have one or two tiny coloured threads mistakenly woven into the fabric. These are barely noticeable but mean that the towels are not ‘perfect’. These towels can be returned if not suitable - please see our returns policy here.
This bath towel has been woven by hand using organic cotton. Similar to a hammam towel but slightly thicker, it has a flat weave with a smooth herringbone pattern on one side and a softly undulating texture on the other that has a gentle exfoliating effect on the skin.
Due to the flat weave, the fabric drapes beautifully and dries quickly. It is thinner than our terry towel, but thick enough to be highly absorbent. We recommend this towel for use in the summer months or when travelling.
As this towel has been woven on traditional looms, you may notice some tiny imperfections in the fabric. This is typical of a hand woven product and is a sign of its authenticity.
The towel was made in India by a handloom cooperative linked to an organic cotton farming group. Read about our visit to the cooperative and the organic farmers here.
