Intro

Add a meaningful touch to your hand washing routine with this cotton towel, its center panel embroidered with a pomegranate motif framed in blue and gold trim. The pomegranate, a longstanding symbol of blessing and abundance, sits above three blue stripes woven across the base of the towel. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has furnished Jewish homes for over two decades. Netilat Yedayim, the ritual hand washing performed before eating bread, calls for a dedicated towel like this one.

Build and Use

Woven from cotton in a waffle weave, the towel carries an embroidered panel rather than a hand stitched one. The panel measures roughly 4 inches by 2 inches and sits above three horizontal blue stripes near the bottom edge. The towel measures 24.5 by 18 inches, sized for daily use by the sink or alongside a matching washing cup.

Gift Ideas

Compact and useful, this towel makes a fitting gift for a housewarming or a couple setting up a Jewish home. It suits a wedding or engagement gift as well, especially paired with a matching bamboo washing cup. Anyone furnishing their kitchen or dining area with Judaica will find it a practical, everyday piece.

Care Instructions

Machine wash the towel in cold water and tumble dry on low to keep the embroidered panel intact. Avoid bleach or harsh detergents, which can dull the colors over time.
