Mizar & Alcor Beach Towel

Because it is handwoven from a silk, linen, and cotton blend, this towel has a much lighter, flatter profile than a traditional terry cloth towel. It feels more like a structured textile than a fluffy towel, offering a unique, tactile experience that is highly absorbent yet quick-drying.

Yes. The natural fibers—specifically the linen and cotton—are designed to break in over time. With each wash, the fibers relax, resulting in a softer, more pliable hand-feel while maintaining the towel's structural integrity.

Absolutely. While the weave is delicate and artisanal, the blend of silk, linen, and cotton is chosen for its durability. It is designed to withstand the elements and frequent use, provided you follow standard care instructions for delicate textiles.

To preserve the weave and the integrity of the fibers, we recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using harsh bleach or fabric softeners, and hang dry whenever possible to maintain the towel's natural texture.

While these towels are generous in size, they are primarily designed as versatile accessories. They provide ample coverage for lounging, but if you prefer a very large surface area for spreading out on the sand, you may find it fits more like a standard towel than an oversized beach blanket.
