About the Pestemal/ Hamamtowel … A treat you Definition
Das Pestemal/Hamamtuch diente ursprünglich als Badetuch und wurde während des Rundgangs im türkischen Badehaus (Hamam) um den Körper gewickelt um die Privatsphäre zu bewahren.
In modern times, the Pestemal has evolved into a multi-use, day to day accessory and is ideally suited for travelling due to its’ lightweight yet durable constitution.
Wonderfully suited for use as a fast drying, highly absorbent yet easily transported bath towel for the beach, the pool, and the spa or for home use. One could also creatively use a Pestemal as a stylish wrap, picnic blanket and baby cover.
These towels will occupy a minimum of space in your drawer, wardrobe, tote-beach-sport bag or suitcase.
All treatyouTowels are natural products made out of cotton and or bamboo fibers and can be machine laundered at 30° or 40°C.
Some shrinkage could occur after machine washing and I would recommend that you hang dry the Pestemal to increase it’s longevity and to avoid that the traditional hand tied fringes could come undone.
