DipaliZ Beach Towel Geometric Ikat Premium Turkish Peshtemal

This fringed peshtemal beach towel is printed with a blue geometric ikat pattern. Ikat gets its characteristic blurred edge from a dyeing method, and printing the effect keeps that softness in the geometry. The towel is 38 by 81 inches and made from polyester.

The story behind this design

Ikat is made by dyeing the yarn before it is woven, so the pattern edges always come out slightly feathered. That blur is the signature, and it is what keeps a hard geometric repeat from looking mechanical when it lands on a towel.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What is an ikat pattern?
A: Ikat is a dyeing technique that leaves pattern edges softly blurred. The design here reproduces that look in a blue geometric repeat.

Q: What size is the towel?
A: 38 by 81 inches.

Q: What is it made from?
A: Polyester, as listed in the product's material option.

Q: Is it good for travel?
A: Yes. A flat-woven peshtemal packs down much smaller than a terry towel, which is why they get used for travel and the gym as well as the beach.
