The Tea Towel

Our designer Tea Towels are a 50:50 blend of cotton & linen. These towels are designed in New Zealand and screen printed in Sweden with environmentally friendly water-based dyes. 

Each wash softens the linen fibres increasing their absorbency while staying strong and ready for everyday use. The towels are mid-weight and a beautiful generous size of 50 x 70cm. An ideal size for eco-wrapping your gifts!

A hook is conveniently sewn in to hang your Tea Towel up.
