Description
This cotton tea towel carries the Fruits de Provence print, a cheerful scatter of fruit in bold, flat shapes across a natural cream ground. Deep green apples, oranges, golden pears, yellow lemons and halved pomegranates with pink centres sit among bunches of blue and mint green grapes, while small blue and yellow flowers, leafy sprigs and soft pink petals fill the spaces between. It is made from 100% cotton and measures 50cm wide and 70cm long, a generous size that covers a good stack of plates and glasses at the draining board.
It belongs in the kitchen, where it works hard at the sink and looks just as good folded over a cupboard rail or hung from a hook beside the window. The hanging strap on one corner means it can live on a peg within easy reach rather than in a drawer, so the print stays on show between washes. The mix of green, orange, blue and yellow brings a bright, sunny note to a plain or neutral kitchen, and the fruit and flower motifs suit a cottage kitchen as readily as a modern one. Away from drying up, lay it over a bread basket on the table or across a tray when you carry breakfast through.
Every edge is fully hemmed, so the towel keeps its neat shape through everyday use and washing. Wash it at 30°C and iron on a low heat if you like it crisp; it should not be dry cleaned, bleached or tumble dried, so hang it on the line or over a rail to dry. As with any cotton cloth, keep it away from open flames and hot rings. It comes in a bag with a folded card on top, which makes it an easy present to hand over as it is, and a cheerful extra to tuck in beside a jar of jam or a favourite cookbook.
