Our organic cotton herringbone weave tea towels are designed to be incredibly absorbent and durable. They make a sustainable, natural and stylish addition to any kitchen.
The herringbone weave is a distinctive V-shape, getting its name because it resembles the skeleton of the herring fish. This makes the organic cotton tea towels incredibly absorbent and perfect for drying dishes or spills in the kitchen.
Our herringbone tea towels are made from sustainable, organic cotton grown without pesticides and with respect for nature. Our tea towels are entirely natural and biodegradable, meaning they don't release microplastics when they break down.
The problem with synthetic tea towels
Many of us don’t realise that most tea towels are made from microfibres, which are a type of plastic. Every time you wash this synthetic fabric, millions of microfibres are released into the water.
These fibres are too small to be filtered out by waste treatment plants, so they end up in our waterways and oceans, where they wreak havoc on marine animal health and our environment.
These microplastics make their way into the bellies of marine animals, seriously harming not only our ecosystem but our planet.
How should I wash these cotton tea towels?
Simply throw your organic cotton tea towel into the washing machine on a hot wash. You can put your dishcloths into the tumble dryer, but avoid fabric softener as it will reduce their absorbency.
If your tea towels smell, soak them in warm water with vinegar before washing.

Delivery + Shipping
Because we're a marketplace with many different vendors, the items in your basket may come from multiple warehouse locations, in more than one shipment.
We attempt to make this clear to you throughout the process via the following:
On each product page we show the vendor details, the estimated shipping and delivery dates and the shopping cost for a given product.
We display estimated delivery times in basket, checkout and confirmation email
At checkout we display the number of deliveries and associated costs (if any) with each shipment.
Individual vendors may offer free delivery when a minimum threshold or amount. If so, this is messaged in the lime green shipping and delivery information just below the buy buttons on a product page. ArtisanBox at a store level offers free delivery on any basket of products valued at over £100 (excl. shipping charges) using code FREEDEL at checkout.
Subscriptions
We offer Subscribe & Save subscriptions on many products to make it easy for you to repurchase your favourites. There are no minimum order requirements and subscriptions are fully manageable through the subscriptions tab in your account. Subscriptions can be cancelled or paused at anytime.
