ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

Crafted from 100% premium Turkish cotton, it mirrors the beloved qualities of traditional Turkish towels - highly absorbent yet quick to dry, making it perfect for beach days and poolside moments.
Each poncho is woven by skilled artisans who understand both beauty and function. The natural cotton fibers become softer with every wash, developing character that reflects your own summer stories. Its boho aesthetic and chic silhouette make it as beautiful draped over shoulders as it is practical for drying off.
Due to the handmade nature of this piece, subtle variations in color, texture, and finishing touches make each poncho uniquely yours. This is slow fashion at its finest - thoughtfully made, built to last, and designed to become more beautiful with time.

In the vibrant textile traditions of Turkey, a passionate artisan discovered her calling among the ancient looms and skilled hands of Mediterranean craftspeople. Growing up surrounded by the world's finest cotton and generations of weaving wisdom, she witnessed the beauty that emerges when tradition meets intention.
After years in the fast-paced world of corporate fashion, she returned to her roots with a deeper understanding of what truly matters. Now she travels between small villages and family workshops, building relationships with artisans who carry forward centuries-old techniques. Each piece in her collection represents days of careful handwork, from selecting the purest cotton to the final gentle wash.
The maker believes in the power of small batch goods to create positive change for both artisans and the environment.
