Color

This throw has a 100% natural material composition, and offers a unique texture that is structured, soft, luxurious, and durable. The handmade pom-poms and stitched detailing are the perfect finishing accent.

Crafted by independent Turkish artisans, their years of experience with fibres and weaves results in a high-quality piece that will last for many cozy moments to come. They’ve blended soft tones within this Turkish cotton, linen and lyocell blend.

Linen (or Flax) grows easily - requiring fewer chemicals than cotton, & less energy and water in its processing as well. Lyocell has a breathable texture less susceptible to bacteria growth and odour; production on average needs less energy, dye, and water than the production of other fabrics. It truly is an earth-friendly textile.

This is an authentic little luxury with a beautiful, modern look and feel. A special milestone celebration gift, or for any corner in your home, cottage or porch. Relax and unwind.

HOW TO USE

  1. Soak Your Turkish Towel Before Use - Before using your Turkish towel, we suggest you soak it overnight in cold water and then hang it to dry. This encourages the fibres of the towel fabric to bloom, which initiates their natural softening process and conditions the cotton fabric to be more absorptive. This leaves you with the softest Turkish towel you’ll ever own.
  2. How to Wash Your Turkish Towel - Either a machine or a hand wash will do. We also recommend you wash your Turkish towel with like colours and in cold water. Do NOT wash in hot water, as hot water will cause shrinkage. And we don’t want that for you! ☺
  3. For Best Results Use Delicate Cycle - Your Turkish towel can be laundered on a regular machine-wash setting; however, we suggest you add your Turkish towel to a delicate machine-wash for best results. A soft fabric deserves a soft touch!
  4. Avoid Machine Drying Your Turkish Towel - Hanging your towel to dry is recommended over machine drying. If you needto throw your Turkish towel in the dryer, be sure to adjust the settings to dry on a low heat. But please note there may be some shrinkage after machine drying.
  5. Be Prepared For a Little Shrinkage - Almost all Poko Turkish Towels are pre-washed, which means if cared for properly the fabric will be soft to the touch, and retain the same hand feel, size, and quality after prolonged washing.

That being said, after the first wash please allow for some shrinkage with select styles of towels. If properly laundered in cold water, the shrinkage of your Turkish towel should be very minimal - within a couple of inches on the length, and almost no shrinkage in the width.

Not to worry, though! Poko Turkish towels are made larger than your typical bath towel. They are generously sized to fully wrap around the body for maximum comfort, even with a little shrinkage after the first use.

  1. No Need to Iron Your Turkish Towel - Skip the iron! If you so desire, you could naturally decrease wrinkles in the towel fabric with dryer balls.
  2. Do Not Use Bleach or Fabric Softeners- This one’s pretty self-explanatory. Just don’t do it.

And that’s it! Now you know how to properly care for your new luxury Turkish towels. You’ve also transformed your home into an inspirational source of sustainable living.
