Know before you buy
These towels are made from a blend of 61% cotton and 39% linen. This combination provides the softness of cotton with the added durability and moisture-wicking properties of linen.
Each towel measures 18.5 inches by 27.5 inches, which is a standard size suitable for drying dishes or lining a serving tray.
Yes, each purchase includes a set of two tea towels featuring the iconic Unikko poppy print.
The flat weave creates a smooth, durable surface that is less prone to snagging than terry cloth. It is designed to be highly functional for drying glassware and cutlery without leaving behind lint.
While the high-quality print is designed for longevity, we recommend washing in cold water and avoiding harsh bleaches to maintain the vibrancy of the red and white pattern over time.
