Know before you buy
Because this cloth is not machine washable, we recommend hand washing it in cool water with a mild detergent. Lay it flat to air dry to maintain the integrity of the cotton and the graphic print.
No, the Swerve Chabu is not lint-free. While it is excellent for setting up your tea space or acting as a decorative mat, it may leave behind small fibers if used to aggressively polish delicate glassware.
No, this cloth is not bleach safe. Using bleach will likely damage the cotton fibers and fade the 'serve' graphic design.
The Swerve Chabu measures 53 cm by 53 cm, or approximately 21 by 21 inches. This square shape is large enough to serve as a central mat for a small tea tray or to be folded comfortably as a bandana.
While it is made of durable cotton, it is designed primarily for tea rituals and decorative use. It will absorb moisture, but it functions best as a dedicated tea cloth rather than a heavy-duty dish towel.
