Linen Tea Towel – Deep Water

Linen Tea Towel Deep Water by Linen Tales

The Linen Tea Towel Deep Water by Linen Tales is a petrol blue kitchen towel made of 100 percent European linen, woven in Lithuania and stone-washed. Its shade sits between blue and green and is unfazed by any splash.

Linen Tea Towel Deep Water is a kitchen towel from Linen Tales in Vilnius that dries pots, grips hot oven handles, and polishes glasses to a shine. At 45 by 65 centimeters, it covers an entire sink, and the corner loop allows it to be hung up afterward.

Petrol, shifting between blue and green

Deep Water is a deep, rich tone that shifts toward blue or green depending on the daylight, making it impossible to pin down. It unfolds its full depth next to brass and dark wood; in a bright kitchen, it provides a counterpoint to white and stainless steel. Such colors are rare in kitchens because they demand a decision, which is exactly why this towel stands out. If you are looking for a singular color accent, this is the right choice.

A dark tone handles the day's cooking

Water stains are barely visible on a rich base, and the mark of a recently set-down pan disappears into the weave instead of remaining as a light ring. This frees the towel from the delicate handling required by light-colored kitchen linens and turns it into a functional tool. Red wine, berry juice, and olive oil are less noticeable here than on natural linen. You can therefore use it with a clear conscience.

Why linen dries faster than terry cloth

Inside, the linen fiber is hollow; it passes moisture on instead of trapping it in the pile like a terry cloth towel. That is why this towel remains absorbent for a long time while drying dishes and will be dry again on its hook before long. That is exactly what counts in the kitchen, because only a towel that dries quickly stays fresh throughout the day. Two towels in rotation are enough for an entire day of cooking with Linen Tales.

Dyed and tested according to OEKO-TEX Standard 100

Where wet dishes and sometimes fruit are placed every day, the dyes should be tested. The fabric therefore carries the Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX, a seal of approval that tests every yarn for residues harmful to health. Additionally, EUROPEAN FLAX verifies the Western European cultivation of the flax and documents its origin down to the field. Together, both certifications turn a claim into a verifiable statement.

Machine wash at 40 degrees, without bleach

Wash the linen tea towel at a maximum of 40 degrees on a delicate cycle and use a mild detergent without bleach so that the petrol retains its depth. Do not spin above 600 revolutions and then air dry the towel instead of putting it in the dryer. Those who prefer a smooth surface should run an iron over the still-damp fabric, as linen is difficult to smooth once dry. This is not necessary, however, as this towel retains its drape even when unironed.
