Sicilian Turkish Towel
The Sicilian Turkish towel is a traditional pattern used in Hammams throughout Turkey however the looming has been changes to create a softer feel with more texture than the original. The black stripes on a white background is a pattern that has been used for centuries. There are all types of variations in the color group but this particular pattern has proven to be one of our most sought-after towels.
Turkish towels are traditional towels made in Turkey on looms with 100% Turkish cotton. The origins of Turkish towels date to about the 7th century A.D. and entwine with the Turkish bathhouses, known as hammams. They are also called Turkish Peshtemal towels. The best Turkish towels are made with tightly woven cotton in a flat woven fabric and look as good in a trendy bath as they do on a dining room table. Although Peshtemal is fairly new to America, it does have a very rich cultural background. Being around many centuries gave different cultures a chance to find other uses for this common Household item. From bathrooms to Hammams to camping, they are an essential item in Mediterranean daily life.
