Description
The olive tree is the tree of the South above all others, timeless and calm, planted to last for generations. This cotton kitchen towel green and yellow keeps its spirit: olive branches drawn with restraint, in a tender green lifted with golden yellow, like late-afternoon light on the leaves.
Each piece is hand block-printed on good-quality cotton, in the artisan workshops of our partners in India, where block printing is a craft 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 natural, Mediterranean spirit dear to the house.
As everyday kitchen linen, this cotton tea towel 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 holds up to repeated washing. Over time the fabric grows softer while keeping its colour.
But this cotton kitchen towel green and yellow also has a decorative side. Folded on the worktop or hanging from the oven rail, it brings a calm, natural note to the room. The green ties it to the garden and the trees, the yellow gives it warmth. It works especially well with stoneware, olive wood, linen and natural tones.
It is a piece that speaks of the South, of new olive oil, of lunches in the shade of the trees. You can pair it with the matching Olive Tree tablecloth and napkins, carrying that Mediterranean atmosphere from the table through to the kitchen.
It also makes a timeless, easy gift, for anyone who loves beautiful materials and honest everyday objects. An artisanal, natural and hard-wearing piece, both useful and decorative. Because a kitchen you enjoy cooking in deserves tea towels as peaceful as an olive grove.
