ABOUT PESTEMAL

Pestemal is a flat -woven,cotton fabric that has been primarily used as a traditional cloth in anatolian Hammams to cover the nudity. The contemporary peshtemal or hamam towel that we use today have evolved from this historical hammam tradition. Nowadays they have become very trendy,super absorbent and quick dry bath &beach towels.

They have a very distinctive stripy patern, and hand-finished tassels on the fringes which make these towels truly authentic. The Hamam towels are 100%pure cotton and bamboo blends are also very sought-after. Bamboo is a natural fibre ,very well known for its high absorbency,softness and natural shine.The anatolian peshtemal fabric has been traditionally woven on hand looms by local villagers for generations.In the south -west ,this humble family tradition is still a very resonant life -style for most of the villagers.
