Know before you buy
This cloth is not machine washable. We recommend hand washing it gently in cool water with a mild detergent and laying it flat to air dry to preserve the fabric and graphic print.
Yes, this cloth is not lint-free. Because it is made from a soft, flat-weave cotton, you may notice some fibers shedding, especially during the first few uses.
While it is designed as a decorative tea session setting, it functions perfectly well as a tea towel for wiping surfaces. Just keep in mind that it is not stain-resistant, so dark tea spills may leave a lasting mark on the white fabric.
The Chabu features a flat weave cotton construction. While it provides a protective layer between your tea ware and the table, it is not a heavy-duty heat pad and should not be used to protect surfaces from extremely hot pots or kettles.
No, this product is not bleach safe. Using bleach will likely damage the graphic print and degrade the cotton fibers.
