Know before you buy
No, the towel is made from 100% washed European linen, which gives it a soft, pleasant texture. While it has the natural structure of linen, it is designed to feel comfortable and gentle against the skin.
Not at all. The linen is pre-washed to embrace a relaxed, wrinkled aesthetic, so ironing is not required. It is intended to look natural and lived-in straight from the laundry.
Linen is naturally more breathable and moisture-wicking than cotton. This towel dries significantly faster, making it an excellent choice for humid environments or frequent use in a sauna.
The Koivu pattern is created using a jacquard weave. This means the birch design is woven directly into the fabric, ensuring it remains durable and won't fade or peel over time.
The linen is Oeko-Tex certified, meaning it has been tested for harmful substances. Additionally, the yarn is spun and dyed in Europe in compliance with REACH standards, ensuring it meets strict safety and environmental requirements.
