This thread, hand-twisted by our artisans in Marrakech, borders all 4 sides of the piece and meets at each corner, where it is sewn and finished with a knot. On this accent piece, the artisanal craftsmanship remains identical to that of the larger items in the collection.  <\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>The finish, explained for this piece<\/h3>\n<p>On the Guest Towel, the hand-twisted thread borders a 30 x 50 cm format, the smallest in the Omana collection. A single thread adorns this piece, compared to two on the Bath Towel and Bath Mat, and three on the Bath Sheet and Shower Towel: the twist is more discreet, in proportion to the piece. <\/p>\n<p>At the 4 corners, the threads meet, are sewn together, and end in a knot\u2014a junction requiring the same precision despite the limited space. Reducing the number of threads without compromising standards is what this small format demands: a single thread must both border the piece evenly and hold the junction of the 4 corners, whereas larger pieces distribute this constraint across several threads. <\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>The birth of the Omana collection, as told by Val\u00e9rie Barkowski<\/h3>\n<p>A client once asked her for a proposal for bed linen and bath linen for a place with a personal and unique character, which will be revealed later. For this hospitality project, budget remained, as often, a central criterion. Val\u00e9rie Barkowski then proposed working with the Yoyo model for the bed, using a twisted thread.  <\/p>\n<p>This is how Omana was born: a direct response to this twisted-thread bed linen, designed to extend the same artisanal touch to the bathroom. Omana became the house&#8217;s first bath linen collection to feature a passementerie finish, a technique previously reserved for bed linen. <\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Features &#038; options<\/h3>\n<p>&#8211; Dimensions: 30 cm x 50 cm, sold as a set of 2. Our pieces are woven on large looms and maintain standard dimensions; a custom size requires dedicated production, reserved for hotel projects or large-scale orders. <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Material: 100% cotton terry, 700 gsm, immediate absorption from the first wash<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Solid colors: Beige, Brick, Carmine, Khaki, Plum, Water<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Multicolor options: Aqua, Crush, Fog, Haroun<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Twisted thread: available in the same color ranges, customizable upon request (thread color, Pantone reference, or sample)<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Quantity sold: set of 2 (standard for this piece across all bath linen collections)<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Bespoke<strong>: <\/strong>For any request regarding thread color or specific projects, contact our team at <a href=\"mailto:sales@valeriebarkowski.com\">sales@valeriebarkowski.com<\/a>; we will respond with pleasure and great care.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Composing your bathroom<\/h3>\n<p>The Omana Guest Towel completes the home&#8217;s bath linen set.

Sold as a set of 2, it is particularly well-suited for guest use in a dedicated bathroom or powder room, in any season.  <\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Care<\/h3>\n<p>Wash at 40\u00b0C; tumble drying is recommended to maintain the terry cloth&#8217;s softness and volume. Separate light and dark colors during washing, and avoid fabric softeners, which reduce the cotton&#8217;s absorbency over time. Even on this small format, the stitching of the hand-twisted thread remains secure, wash after wash, and retains its original color.  <\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>To go further<\/h3>\n<p>To care for your artisanal home linens, please consult  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/fr\/entretien-du-linge-artisanal\/\"><em>&#8220;Caring for artisanal linens&#8221;.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sold as a set of 2, the Omana Guest Towel features highly absorbent white cotton terry cloth with a hand-twisted thread on all 4 sides, crafted by our artisans in Marrakech.<\/p>\n<p>Made to order, it generally requires a 2 to 4-week production lead time before shipping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15802,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[519],"product_cat":[178,183],"product_tag":[198],"class_list":["post-15804","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-omana","product_cat-bath-linen","product_cat-guest-towel","product_tag-passementerie","pa_couleur-aqua","pa_couleur-beige","pa_couleur-brick","pa_couleur-carmine","pa_couleur-crush","pa_couleur-fog","pa_couleur-haroun","pa_couleur-khaki","pa_couleur-plum","pa_couleur-water","pa_format-30-cm-x-50-cm","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/15804","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15804"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15802"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15804"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=15804"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=15804"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.valeriebarkowski.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=15804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
