TRIBAL TURTLE TEA TOWELS

These Tribal Turtle Tea Towels are as vibrant and beautiful as their symbolism! Turtles play an important role in cultures across the globe. In Java, the humble sea turtle serves as a guide to those lost at sea–figuratively and literally. A sea turtle carries the world on its back in Native American traditions. And in Japan, the long lifespan of the turtle contributes to its symbolism of wisdom and longevity.

These beautiful tea towels capture the beauty of sea turtle myths. This set features a tribal-style design inspired by Indonesian and Polynesian cultures. Two of the towels in this set are printed: 1 with sea turtles and one with a tribal ocean border. The third towel included in this set is unprinted. Choose between green or blue tea towel sets.

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.
