Hammam is a woven fabric that has evolved from the historical Turkish hammam bath tradition going back 600 years. They were widely used as a wrap when men and women in the Ottoman era were washing in the public hammam baths to cover their bodies. Now, they have moved beyond the boundaries of hammam and have become trendy bath, beach, and travel towels high in demand. In the UK, they are commonly known as Hammam Towels and in Turkey they are known as Peshtemal towels.

Hammam towels have a very distinctive stripy pattern with hand-finished tassels on the fringes which give them a truly authentic character. Cotton and Olive hammam towels are 100% pure cotton. Linen and cotton blends are also sought-after. The average size of the hammam bath sheet is 90 x 180 cm and the hand towel is 50 x 90 cm. And the average weight is 250-300 grams. Due to their flat-woven nature, these hammam towels are absolutely lightweight and compact to pack & carry. They have made a name for themselves for being very absorbent, compact and fast drying. With each wash, hammam towels will get softer and more absorbent.

The Turkish hammam towels are very versatile and durable. Their compactness allows them to be used on various occasions as a picnic | beach blanket, sofa throw & cover, children’s blanket, tablecloth, shawl, or sarong. Hammam bathrobes made out of hammam cloth are also excellent bath and beachwear with their fast-drying properties and lightness.

There are a few hubs across Turkey where peshtemal hammam towels have been woven on the looms, some are traditionally hand-loomed to this day. We source our hammam towels straight from the local weavers at the Denizli province in the South-West of Turkey.”

I bought a beautiful blue peshtemal towel which l can proudly hang at the side of the swimming pool! It dries easily and is soft and luxurious on the skin. I would thoroughly recommend this towel to anyone. It is also light enough to pack in my gym bag without taking up too much room.

My daughter asked me to buy her one of these towels after she saw her friend use it at the school swimming gala. Was a great buy. They are very compact, absorbent and dry much faster then the regular towels I used to give to my daughter to take to the pool or the beach. I liked the choice of colours. Great value for money. Will make a great gift for a teenager.

These are just perfect for taking swimming as other reviewers have said – they take up no room at all yet are lovely and large to wrap up in.

We also take ours on holiday as they weigh very little unlike a traditional beach towel and can double up as a sarong.

Lovely item, great colours, they get softer with each wash and they are reasonably priced – I would not be without mine now!

Proper care for your towels will prolong their life and keep them in top condition for years

It is recommended to wash this product at a gentle cycle programme, max 40C. It is important to wash it at a low-spin program to protect the tassels. Washing tasseled products in a wash bag may further help keep tassels intact

Try not to use the fabric conditioner

We don’t recommend tumble-drying. If it is preferred for the sake of convenience, we only recommend low-heat tumble-drying. The best practice is to leave it to air-dry. It is much better for the environment as well as for your energy bills

Keep them away from strong, direct heat while drying
