A peshtemal is a traditional Turkish towel made from cotton or linen. Known for its lightweight and quick-drying properties, it is often used in hamams (Turkish baths) and at the beach. The fabric is typically woven with a flat design, making it easy to fold and carry. Peshtemals come in various colors and patterns, reflecting regional styles and craftsmanship. They are versatile and can be used as towels, blankets, or even sarongs. Their eco-friendly nature and durability make them a popular choice for those seeking sustainable alternatives to conventional towels.
