Tye-Dye

Fun, new Tye-Dye collection—hand loomed and hand tye-dyed. Each towel is made from 70% organic Turkish cotton  & 30% Bamboo. Dyed but never bleached for perfect color saturation. Used for centuries in Turkish hamams, or baths, the pestemal (pesh-te-mahl) is the original “Turkish Bath Towel”. They are a soft and smooth, flat woven cloth, made by hand, usually from cotton, finished with fringes. The hand or hair towel size is called a peskir (pesh-kir).  These towels are known for their eco-friendly properties: Highly absorbent, quick to dry, and will not collect sand Lightweight and compact, fold flat, minimizes storage space Naturally anti-bacterial – will not acquire a musty odor Environmentally friendly – quick to wash and dry, saving energy Some of the weaves may need several washings and dryings to reach full absorbency and softness
