Know before you buy
The towel measures approximately 20 inches by 27.5 inches. This generous size makes it highly versatile for tasks ranging from drying large pots to lining bread baskets.
While the towel is durable and crisp upon arrival, it is designed to soften significantly with use. Because it is made from 100% French linen, the texture will continue to improve and become more supple with every wash.
Yes, every Bistrot Tea Towel is crafted in Armentières, France. The region is historically renowned for its canvas production and centuries of textile expertise.
Linen is naturally one of the most durable textile fibers available. These towels are specifically designed for daily wear and tear, and their quality and absorbency actually improve over time rather than degrading.
To maintain the quality of the linen, we recommend machine washing in warm water. Avoid using harsh bleach, and line drying is preferred to preserve the integrity of the fibers and the artisanal weave.
