      Linen Tea Towels

      Once humble, now a decorator item, the tea towel has definitely evolved over the years to hold it’s own space in the kitchen. They are no longer just for drying the dishes or wet tea towel whipping annoying siblings- they’re also for display, and there are now many different styles and fabric options available.

      Linen or Cotton tea towels

      Linen tea towels The drying properties of pure linen are superior to cotton. Linen is a stronger fabric than cotton and can withstand the abrasive friction of constant drying. Linen tea towels are noticeably more absorbent than cotton, and their drying performance improves with use. Absorbent, while still feeling dry to the touch, linen has natural hollow fibres, which means it can absorb more than other materials, such as cotton and faster too!

      The Bedspread shop has a variety of Australian-made linen tea towels-ranging from the Good Grammar to the Phonetic Pantry. Our linen tea towels make the ideal housewarming or hostess gift and are perfect to send overseas to loved ones at Christmas time…or any time!

      Cotton tea towels have been a popular choice for many years. One of the advantages of cotton products is that they are economical -linen cloth is more costly than cotton. Good quality cotton tea towels have a tight weave making them absorbent, soft, and capable of soaking up large amounts and withstanding numerous wash cycles without losing strength or durability. Soft cotton also prevents smudging and watermarks with little effort. Cotton towels are soft enough to absorb but durable enough to withstand repeated uses and washing

      Does linen make good tea towels?

      Absorbent, while still feeling dry to the touch, linen has natural hollow fibres, which means it can absorb more than other materials, such as cotton and faster too! Beautiful and functional, linen makes for a very good tea towel.

      Is cotton or linen better for tea towels?

      The drying properties of pure linen are superior to cotton. Linen is a stronger fabric than cotton and can withstand the abrasive friction of constant drying. Linen tea towels are noticeably more absorbent than cotton, and their drying performance improves with use.

      What is the best tea towel material?

      Pure linen is one of the best natural fibres for drying and absorbing moisture, making them an ideal tea towel.

      Perfect present

      This was the best-ever present for my english teacher friend - we're still laughing over some of the lines :)

      Very happy with the Tea Towel per se. My only disappointment was that I was purchasing as a gift and expected it to come in a little pillow box as indicated on the website - whereas it came as just a folded tea towel.

      The perfect end to a long list when, you 'get the idea' and you could 'go on' but there is absolutely no point. In Latin, et cetera, means “and other things" and, coincidently we have a list of 'other things' commonly mispronounced including ex cetera.
