What is a Pestemal?
A pestemal is the authentic Turkish bath towel. These lightweight, flat-woven towels originate from the steamy Turkish bath where a thick towel just wouldn't do.
They are lightweight and extremely absorbent, making them a practical, earth-friendly towel for the modern home.
What we love about a pestemal:
quick-drying + absorbent
made from natural fibers
easy care with machine wash and dry
made by artisan families in Turkey
Our approach is simple
We connect directly with talented artisans in Turkey and the Middle East who value tradition and insist on quality.
Our values are genuine.
Fair. Sustainable. Ethical. Authentic. Simple. Beautiful.
We love everything we sell.
Why Linen?
Linen is a natural fiber made from the flax plant and is considered the strongest of all natural plant-based fibers.
The benefits of our linen towels:
hypoallergenic, antistatic, antibacterial and antifungal
becomes softer and more absorbent with use
natural fibers do not add to the alarming amount of synthetic microfibers in our environment
handwoven in small batches by artisan weavers in Turkey
