France, circa 1940-1960.
The French have a way of making even the dish towel look good.
Classic vintage French torchons in creamy white, finished with simple woven stripes in either red or green. Made for the everyday work of the kitchen, these sturdy cloths were meant to be used, washed, softened, and used again.
We found a collection in France and brought them home, because we are fancy.
Hang one over the oven door, line a bread basket, use it as a generous napkin, or actually dry the dishes with it. Novel idea.
Simple, useful, and très French.
