"Nina" tea towel in Pink

Nina is a tea towel in Pink, woven in linen and cotton with a herringbone structure. A linen weft meets a cotton warp, where yarn dyed stripes give the color its depth. The two fibers bring softness and absorbency together in a textile for everyday kitchen use.

Thinking of the friendship between Nina Hamnett and Virginia Woolf and the spaces they frequented, we imagined what a tea towel for their summer kitchen might have looked like. A small, rebellious textile, borrowing the freedom of color found at Charleston, the Sussex home of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant. In this pink version, the same conversation moves into another palette, carrying the spirit of those painted interiors into an ordinary gesture at home.
