Know before you buy
The Giglio Piana features a slightly smoother weave than traditional Giglio fabrics. It offers a refined, soft hand-feel while maintaining the natural durability and structure of high-quality Italian linen.
To preserve the integrity of the 100% linen fibers and the hand-knotted fringe, we recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Air drying is best to prevent shrinkage and keep the fabric looking its best over time.
Yes, the 40 x 70 cm dimensions are specifically designed for guest use. They are large enough to be functional for hand-drying while remaining compact enough to drape elegantly over a standard towel bar or fold neatly in a guest basket.
The fringe is a delicate detail that adds to the towel's heirloom aesthetic. To keep it from tangling or fraying, it is best to place the towel in a mesh laundry bag during machine washing.
Linen is naturally highly absorbent and quick-drying, making it an excellent material for towels. While this piece is crafted with a refined weave, it remains fully functional for everyday use in a guest bathroom or powder room.
