Ready to bask in the sun.
Designed by a generations-old Turkish textile company, this handwoven, 100% cotton towel might be pretty enough to drape over your sofa...but it also makes a lovely towel. If you’re going for an old-world vacation vibe (even if it’s by the local pool), stock up on a couple of these beauts. We’re really taken with the soft hues, playful stripes, and fringed edges which look right at home under a shade tree at the park or hanging off a hook by the bathtub.

Twin sisters Melis and Melda’s love of textiles comes from a generations-old lineage that starts with their grandfather, who owned a towel company in a small Turkish village. Today they source the highest quality raw materials to hand weave table linens, blankets and, yes, towels, with the love, passion and craft passed down to them.

great for the beach or a picnic in the park
Obsessed with Turkish cotton towels - it is soft and durable and does a good job at absorbing water. I bring this with me pretty much everywhere since my husband and I spend a lot of time outdoors.
Beautiful and practical
Beautifully made and very absorbent. Size is just right for adults or children. Great beach and pool towel.
