There is a reason TAMA Turkish blanket throws are so luxurious: history. Turkey has been known for its beautiful textiles—including peshtemals, a flat-woven textile with a hand-tied fringe—since the 16th century.
Today, TAMA Founder iLke Tosun and her partner Nevzat Pekcan make their peshtemal throws in the Denizli Province. There, Turkish weavers use techniques that date back to the Ottoman Empire, right down to tying the tassels by hand.
TAMA peshtemals are made of 100% Aegean cotton, with a long fiber that is stronger and more durable than other cottons. It also grows softer and more plush with use, a characteristic that gives Turkish towels and other textiles their high quality.
Each of these throws is extra-large and can even be used as a blanket or coverlet on beds from twin to queen size. Cool and comfortable, TAMA peshtemals are the best of old world craftsmanship and new world practicality.
