The most important thing that a towel must guarantee is the sensation of softness on the skin. This depends on the type of fabric you choose. Generally, the preferred fabric for bathroom linen is cotton due to its absorbency and its softness.
Cotton towels can be found in classic terry, with honeycomb patterns. However, there are also towels in other fabrics, such as linen, an excellent natural fiber, or microfiber, which has the advantage of being very thin and drying very quickly.
The first thing to look at when choosing the right towel is the fabric with which it was made:
Cotton towels are best for hands and body, while linen towels are good for plates and glasses.
Terry cotton is the softest and most absorbent fabric.
High-quality oversized beach towels are usually made of long cotton fibers. The more the weight per square meter increases, the higher and softer the curl of the sponge will be.
Look at the fibers of the sponge. If the fibers are standing straight, it is a good quality signal. If the fibers are flat, the quality is not good.
If the towel is soft and velvety to the touch, as well as a certain weight, it is of good quality. If it's rough or looks like canvas, the quality is definitely poor.
Towels are also an important element for bathroom furnishings: they can, in fact, be plain colors, with geometric motifs or in classic stripes. To add a nice aesthetic effect to the bathroom, choose towels in color found in the tiles, furniture, or accessories. To the very decorated bathrooms, with the presence of various patterns, it is better to combine white linen. White towels are always an elegant solution and do not create aesthetic constraints of any kind. In addition, white is the easiest color to wash, as it can be bleached and does not bleed.
What is a towel? It might seem like a banal and obvious question, but one that instead unites all those objects that are used in everyday life and of which we never ask ourselves the origin, provenance, and past relative to their creation. A towel is a fabric of various sizes with the function of drying parts of the body thanks to the consistency of the material with which the object is made.
Peshtemal was commonly used in Turkish baths and remained a prime example of an elaborate towel. It was often made by hand through an embroidery process that raised the quality level of the cloth, which is why Turkish towels are still considered relatively more valuable than ordinary ones.
There are different types of towels nowadays. This is already enough to account for the variety of materials and, consequently, for use in very different areas. Let's make an overview of the object by analyzing the various types of towels from the point of view of the functions and materials of construction.
Although the towel can also be used in other domestic environments, usually the towel is counted among the products of bathroom linen and not household linen in general, usually available in a single piece of rectangular shape and characterized by simple designs. The fabric, in this case, is thick enough so as to ensure complete drying after washing hands or other parts of the body.
More specifically, it is possible to make a distinction between hand and foot towels: the former are generally hung next to the sinks, while the latter is placed either directly on the floor, near the sanitary ware, or also hung next to shower or bidet.
Equally specific is the kitchen towel, which is used precisely in the drying phase of the dishes immediately after their washing. In this case, the towel fabric will be thinner than that typical of sanitary cloths since its function is only to dry the less delicate surfaces of cutlery and ceramic services.
An even different type of towel is that of beach towels, characterized by larger dimensions than the elements mentioned above as they have the function of both hosting a person's body in full and drying large parts of the body. An equally specific function is that of sports towels, small in size and used to dry sweat during or after physical exertion.
Then there are a barber and hotel towels, used for the specific functions of beard-hair cutting and hygiene and cleaning services respectively available to guests.
Hammam towels dry your body so well because they are made of 100% pure natural materials.
