Top as a beach towel, sauna and yoga towel & better than microfiber towels and terry towels.
This authentic hammam towel was woven in the traditional way from pure cotton in Turkey. Thus, it originates from the tradition of the Ottoman bath towels, also called pestemal. So you buy an original hammam towel.
Because it has been woven in such a special way, it is flat and robust at the same time. Absorbent and quick-drying.
100x180 cm in size, making it the perfect substitute for a terry towel, which is often used in bathrooms and also in swimming pools.
This hammam towel is much better than the heavy terry towels. Why?
It is lighter, just as absorbent, quick-drying, more space-saving and therefore requires significantly less water, electricity and washing powder in the washing machine than the previous shower and bath towels.
Our Pestemals are original and made of 100% natural fiber. Most of the time it is 100% cotton as with the classic hammam towels. But we also have a line that has added some linen. In any case, we do not use plastic fibers. Microfiber cloths are a major cause of microplastics (it's even in the name). Personally, I find the thought of drying myself off with plastic, and I mean recycled plastic, unpleasant. My tip: Buy original, handcrafted hammam towels.
