Our Kitchen Towels

Our popular emerald striped kitchen towels have been woven in a traditional Cajolá pattern typically used to wrap tortillas or bread or carry gifts of food from one family to another. However, we have woven the towels as a much finer cloth. And the earthtone stripes were created as a complementary color way.
The diamonds embroidered on the border of the towels represent the process of life -- birth (the red center), life (green), illness (yellow), and finally death (purple).
