Few everyday items deliver both practicality and indulgence. But when it comes to essentials like hand towels, it’s time to raise the bar. A product that redefines what a hand towel should feel like: soft, absorbent, durable, and beautiful.
Whether you’re upgrading your bathroom, curating a chic guest space, or simply investing in better basics, these Turkish hand towels are more than just a household item — they’re a lifestyle upgrade. Crafted with care and designed for daily use, Ruvy Home Basics towels offer the perfect blend of form and function.
Let’s dive into what makes these towels so special, and why they’re a favorite among homeowners, interior designers, and hospitality professionals alike.
Often called peshtemal or hammam towels, are woven from premium Turkish cotton — a long-fiber cotton grown exclusively in the Aegean region of Turkey. This cotton is known for being:
-
Exceptionally soft
-
Ultra-absorbent
-
Quick-drying
-
Lightweight yet durable
While traditional terry cloth towels tend to get rough or lose shape over time, Turkish cotton towels actually get softer with every wash. They also tend to be more breathable and compact, making them versatile beyond the bathroom.
Features of Ruvy Home Basics Turkish Hand Towels
It has taken the traditional Turkish towel and elevated it with thoughtful touches that make it ideal for modern homes. Here’s what sets them apart:
🧵 1. Premium Turkish Cotton
Woven from 100% authentic Turkish cotton, these towels offer luxurious softness and exceptional durability. The longer cotton fibers mean fewer joins in the weave, which results in smoother, stronger fabric.
💧 2. Highly Absorbent & Fast-Drying
Unlike bulky terry towels that take hours to dry, Turkish cotton’s flat weave dries much faster — reducing the chance of mildew and musty smells.
🪡 3. Handcrafted Quality
Each towel is loomed with precision and finished with hand-knotted fringes, giving it a stylish, artisan look that works beautifully in bathrooms, kitchens, or as home decor accents.
Ruvy Home Basics towels feature timeless patterns and neutral tones that complement any decor style — from rustic farmhouse to modern minimalist.
🛁 5. Multi-Purpose Use
These towels are not just for drying hands. They can be used as guest towels, gym towels, hair towels, or even napkins or placemats for an elegant table setting.
Why People Are Switching to Turkish Hand Towels
More and more households are moving away from traditional hand towels in favor of Turkish towels, and the reasons are clear:
✅ Superior Feel & Comfort
People love how soft these towels are on their skin — and how they get even softer after every wash.
✅ Elegant Aesthetic
These towels bring a spa-like calm to your home. They’re not just functional — they’re decorative.
✅ Eco-Friendly Choice
Because Turkish towels dry quickly and last longer, you’ll wash them less often and replace them less frequently. That means less water, energy, and textile waste.
✅ Compact & Convenient
Their lightweight structure makes them easy to store, hang, or pack for travel.

Care Instructions: How to Keep Them Looking Beautiful
To keep your Turkish hand towels at their best:
-
Wash before first use to maximize absorbency.
-
Machine wash cold with like colors.
-
Avoid fabric softener, which can coat fibers and reduce absorbency.
-
Tumble dry low or hang to dry.
-
Don’t worry if the fringes curl — that’s part of their character. You can hand-twist them after washing to maintain their shape.
