Whether they’re linen, hemp or metis, French vintage tea towels make drying up a pleasure.  Each time I hang one on the rail in my kitchen it brightens the room and using them just plain makes me happy!

Jazzy metis

Unused metis damask

Monogrammed red stripe linen

Beautiful best quality “pur fil”, unused

19th century hemp

Beautiful fine white linen with MB monograms – lovely for guest towels

Chunky hemp – great for cushions

Lovely rustic hemp/linen mix with traditional red stripes and CB monograms

Unused metis (linen/cotton) with red stripes

Linen with red stripes

Thick linen with blue stripe – unused

And of course if you don’t want to use them for drying up, they make up into super cushions, can be used as guest towels or are large enough to be small tablecloths/trolley cloths.

And as far as I’m concerned, vintage=quality you can’t find today.
