Meet your new favourite towel for every occasion. The Aegean Turkish Towel by Slate + Salt is handwoven from 100% OEKO-TEX certified Turkish cotton in the Denizli region of Turkey — a place with centuries of weaving tradition behind it. Subtle stripes and a signature eyelash fringe give it a timeless look that works just as well at the beach as it does in the bathroom. It also makes a genuinely thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates quality, craft, and a little everyday luxury.
✨ Features
- 🧵 100% Turkish Cotton: Made from extra-long, tightly woven fibres for a lightweight yet highly absorbent finish that only gets better with use.
- 📐 Generous Size: Measures 67" x 36" — larger than a standard towel, so it works beautifully as a bath towel, beach towel, beach blanket, or sarong.
- ✋ Handmade in Turkey: Loomed by skilled artisans in small, family-owned workshops in Denizli. Tassels are hand-knotted by women working from home.
