What is Peshtemal?

Also known as Turkish towel, hammam towel and fouta, peshtemal / pestemal is a woven fabric with tassels / fringes on the two smaller edges.

Turkish towels have become very popular not only in Turkey but throughout the world in the past few years.

Turkish people were using peshtemal to cover themselves in hammams – traditional Turkish baths ages ago. At those times, it was only a hammam towel. Today, it has become an alternative to regular terry cloths; bath and beach towels.
