About the Ereniko Turkish Towel — Sizes, Uses & Care ▾
The Ereniko is the brightest thing on the rail: an off-white cotton–linen ground with clean sunflower-yellow stripes and a fringe knotted in the same two tones. Where our natural colourways disappear into a room, this one lifts it — and it is easy to spot from the water.
What a peshtemal does better
- Dries in a fraction of the time. Flat-woven rather than looped, so it holds less water and air-dries between uses.
- Takes up almost no space. Folds to a quarter of the bulk of a terry bath sheet — a real difference in small cupboards and packed suitcases.
- Sand shakes off. No pile means no grit stuck in the towel.
- Better with every wash. Linen softens as it breaks in and absorbency increases over the first several cycles.
Two sizes
- Bath/Beach 37'' x 73'' — a full bath sheet, long enough to cover a sun lounger.
- Hand/Hair 23'' x 30'' — bathroom rail, kitchen, gym bag, or wrapped around wet hair.
Care
Wash before first use to set the weave. Cool wash, tumble dry low, no bleach and no fabric softener. Wash with like colours for the first couple of cycles to keep the yellow clean and bright.
Woven on traditional looms in Antioch, Turkey.
Frequently asked questions
Q: What is the best bath towel material for daily use?
A: A cotton and linen blend, such as that found in the Ereniko towel, offers an excellent balance of softness, absorbency, and durability for daily use. This combination is often preferred for its natural feel and quick-drying properties, making linen towels good for regular rotation.
Q: What are the benefits of Turkish bath towels?
A: Turkish bath towels, like the Ereniko, are often hand-woven from high-quality cotton and linen blends.
