Since receiving these towels I have washed them twice. The material still looks the same. It’s soft, absorbent and a lovely pattern. The towels are longer the standard hand towels but I actually like that. It’s a versatile style I am able to tie in multiple ways instead of just hanging layer over the towel ring. I am going to order more! I converted one towel into a floor mat to make a matching set.PERFECT GIFT. The quality of the packaging is handsome and Earthy. The towels are clearly not a print, GREAT! Every part of them is woven and the dying process comes off as excellent quality. They're pretty thin but linen is supposed to be. Personally, I was disappointed the linen isn't more scratchy and "raw" feeling. They feel like a very soft cotton-linen blend. It's a little confusing how they are presented in the pics. You receive 2 in 1 roll. If you buy 2 towels you will get 1 roll. And you won't want to unwrap the towels to find out. There are 2, trust me. We gifted a set and ordered another for another gift. For this price??? You can't argue with the quality.Nice towels. Color is beautiful. The seams along the edges bunch up and don't lay flat after washing. Mildly disappointing. What ever thread they used for the edge does not shrink at the same rate as the towel.I love these hand towels. I bought a different towel and wished I would have gotten the towels to match these hand towels. They are thicker, more absorbent and very soft. I’m hoping my towels get softer with time since I’m using them in my bathroom, not at the beach.Very nice towels, thick and soft. I use in the kitchen but could use in bathroom too. They tend to not absorb the best for drying a surface but for hands they are great.The pattern has black flecks in it, but I love the look these give my bathroom. I use one in the hand towel ring and the other draped over a teri cloth bath towel. I've had Turkish towels before and I know the more you wash, the softer and more absorbent they get.Use these in my kitchen for decor very prettyThese hand towels are well made. They add a touch of texture to the bathroom. They wash nicely and tumble dry without wrinkles. They are a bit oversized for a towel bar ring. My only negative is the color. Purchased moss or army green and they simply look black. Still a nice addition to the room.So glad I bought two pairs, one set in latte and one in teal. Really only going to be used as a finishing touch in the kitchen. Haven’t washed them yet but have bough Turkish towels before and the more you wash them the softer they getI ordered these for our caravan as space is an issue I pre-wash them before using which you need to do a few times to get the absorbency but overall I think they are our ideal for life on the road where the space is an issue they take up so much less space than traditional towels. Look fab too!These are so pretty and i love them, so i didnt return. However, if you are planning on using them as hand towels as i was, then dont. They simply cant dry and dont absorb any moisture from your hands. Its very strange. Its like they are hydrophobici haven’t washed yet so i can’t comment on how that as i use them mainly as decoration towels but look greatonly started using the front one to dry hands and although they feel thin they do the jobVery pleased with these towels, going to be used in the kitchen, but have yet to wash them, hoping the colour doesn’t run
