GROUNDLOOM | Handwoven Cotton Towel | Blue Turquoise
Woven from 100% long-staple Turkish cotton in a tight, flat weave, Groundloom is a thin but dense towel – structured and absorbent but still far slimmer than traditional terry. Produced in small quantities by skilled family ateliers, it speaks to those who prefer fewer, better pieces that hold their place over time.
Provenance:
Handwoven in southeast Türkiye by family ateliers in limited runs.

Each Atelier Orea product is washed in traditional Turkish soap directly off the loom - a time honored step that removes natural allergens and leaves a subtle, grounding scent. If you’re sensitive to fragrance, a gentle wash and line dry, will lift the aroma and start the natural break in, bringing your piece closer to its peak softness and absorbency.
