Description

Lapuan Kankurit’s Puro hand towel is a waffle towel adorned with fine stripes, perfect for drying your hands in both the bathroom and the kitchen. Classically beautiful, this hand towel brings a touch of Nordic design to your home or summer cottage.

Designed by Elina Helenius, the towels in the Puro collection are made from a blend developed by Lapuan Kankurit, combining linen with Tencel made from wood fibers – the result is an exceptionally soft and absorbent material that also dries quickly. The waffle weave further enhances absorbency while giving the towels a pleasantly textured, lively surface. Puro towels are woven at Lapuan Kankurit’s own weaving mill in Finland.

  • Length: 27.56 in (70 cm)
  • Width: 19.69 in (50 cm)

  • Material 43% tencel, 39% washed European "Masters of linen" linen, 18% cotton
  • Colour Natural linen, green
  • Notes Hanging loop on the long side of the towel.
  • Care instructions Delicate laundry wash at 60°C in plenty of water. Wash separately. 40°C is also an adequate wash temperature. Do not use softner and bleach. Normal spin cycle. Reshape whilst damp. Linen fibers may come off the product during the wash. Check the lint filter before and after washing. The color of natural linen becomes lighter with washing. We do not recommend tumble dryer.
