About the Abbas Turkish Towel — Uses, Sizes & Care ▾
A narrow navy-charcoal ticking stripe on off-white cotton and linen — the most classic pattern we weave, and the one that goes with everything. The Abbas is the towel you buy when you do not want the towel to be a decision.
Why a peshtemal instead of a terry towel
- Dries much faster. A flat weave carries far less water than looped terry, so it is dry again before the next shower.
- Packs flat. Around a quarter of the bulk of a terry bath sheet — it disappears into a beach bag or hand luggage.
- Sand does not cling. No pile means grit brushes straight off.
- Softens with use. The linen breaks in rather than wearing out, and the weave opens up to absorb more.
One towel, several jobs
At 37'' x 73'' it is a full bath sheet for one adult and long enough to cover a sun lounger. The quiet stripe means it also works as a beach blanket, a picnic throw, a sofa cover or a table runner without looking out of place.
Care
Wash before first use to set the weave. Cool wash, tumble dry low, no bleach and no fabric softener — softener coats cotton and linen and reduces the absorbency you bought it for. Shake the fringe while damp so it dries straight.
Woven on traditional looms in Antioch, Turkey.
