Know before you buy
These towels feature a flat weave with a slightly textured feel. The blend of cotton and linen provides a sturdy, tactile quality that is more substantial than a standard thin cotton towel.
Yes, the inclusion of linen in the fabric blend enhances absorbency and durability. They are well-suited for drying glassware and dishes while remaining quick to dry between uses.
Each purchase includes a set of two tea towels. Both towels feature the iconic Unikko poppy print, but they vary in flower size to provide a complementary look.
Each towel measures 28 inches in length and 19 inches in width, making them a standard, versatile size for most kitchen tasks.
