Description
Some motifs almost smell of Provence. This tea towel pink is one of them: sprigs of lavender and light butterflies drawn on a soft pink ground, in a delicate composition that recalls the fields in flower at the start of summer.
Each piece is hand block-printed on good-quality cotton, in the artisan workshops of our partners in India, where block printing has been handed down through generations. Every impression carries the small variations of the gesture, the mark of a genuinely handmade textile rather than an industrial print. The design is created in France, in the soft, country spirit dear to the house.
As everyday kitchen linen, this tea towel pink does its work fully. The cotton is absorbent, it dries glasses without leaving lint, wipes dishes, serves as a hand towel by the sink and stands up to repeated washing. Over time the fabric grows softer while keeping its colour.
But this cotton tea towel also has a decorative side. Folded on the worktop or hanging from the oven rail, it brings softness and freshness to the room. The pink keeps it tender without tipping into sweetness, while the lavender and butterflies give it a light, poetic air. It works with white china, linen and pale, natural materials.
It is the kind of linen that speaks of the South, of lavender fields and summer mornings when everything is still fresh. You can pair it with the matching Lavender Butterfly tablecloth and napkins, carrying the same soft, Provençal feeling from the table through to the kitchen.
It also makes a tender, easy gift, for anyone who loves beautiful materials and delicate everyday objects. An artisanal, soft and hard-wearing piece, both useful and decorative. Because a kitchen you enjoy cooking in deserves tea towels with grace and a hint of summer.
