PORTUGUESE CULTURAL TEA TOWELS

Portuguese Cultural Tea Towels – This stunning tae towel set features prints inspired by the beautiful country of Portugal. The all-over print of Lisbon sardines is inspired by the world-class fish packing companies located  on the coasts of Portugal. Their world-famous sardines are enjoyed all over the world and regarded as the highest quality globally. The second print contains a border of the Rooster of Barcelos, known for its folk tale of a rooster that vindicated an innocent man.

This set includes 3 flour sack towels: 1 all-over-print with sardines, 1 with a rooster trim, and a solid non-printed towel. Perfect for gifts, baking, and for bar use.

ABOUT BLOCK PRINTING

Our cotton flour sack towels are made by hand with block printing techniques. Each printing block is hand-carved and stamped with durable fabric paint designed to last for many washes. Block print stamps do not last forever and erode over time. Our designs are offered as a limited edition based on the life of the stamp. If you like this design, we encourage you to get it while it lasts!

Because of the nature of the product, please expect some variations in color and markings. Please also expect fading on the printing. Block printing is not the same process as screen printing, and does not produce even layers of paint on the fabric. They are designed intentionally to have variation, fading, and distinction, which is part of the appeal of block printed products.

FLOUR SACK TOWEL CARE

To extend the life of your flour sack towel, wash with cold water with mild detergents and tumble dry with heat. Iron with paint side down using the cotton setting on your iron. Although the printing does not typically bleed, wash with like colors.
