Turkish Blue and White Cotton Fouta a beautiful and versatile 100% cotton textile in the most perfect light blue color. We love ours as a summer throw, tossed over the back of a chair or sofa, as table covering.
Made with the highest quality of cotton and are extremely durable and soft. Luxurious, light weight and extra absorbent it makes the perfect oversize towel or beach blanket. We often throw it over our shoulders as a wrap or tie around our waist as a sarong. Easy to launder we love to put it on the sofa to protect from pets wet feet on a rainy day. Hand knotted tassel trim adds a lovely design detail!

FACTS AND HISTORY: Fouta", means towel in Tunisia. For centuries, the looming process of Fouta spa towels is well known throughout the Mediterranean. Women would wear them as they go to the Hammam, also known as Turkish baths. As illustrated in the photo, one Fouta was to cover her head and later dry it. The second one was to wrap her body in it, and then dry herself off. They are sometimes compared to Peshtemal or Turkish towels.
