Terry Towels
A high-quality towel is more than a consumable – it is part of your daily care ritual. Soft, fluffy terry against the skin after showering, high absorbency and long-lasting quality: anyone who has once been wrapped in a premium towel rarely wants to go back to standard goods. With around 700 hand and body contacts a year, the high-quality choice pays off noticeably.
At Interior Couture you will find towels from some of the most renowned European and Portuguese manufacturers. As towels differ greatly in material, weight (g/m²) and feel, we offer free fabric samples so that you can feel and compare the fabrics by hand before buying. You can reach us by telephone on +49 (0) 221 630 606 12.
What sets a premium towel apart?
High-quality towels differ from simple goods in several important respects – and it is precisely these differences that show in daily use.
- High-quality cotton: long-staple fibres from Egypt, Turkey or India ensure particular softness and tensile strength
- High weight: premium towels mostly have 500 to 700 g/m², whereas standard goods often weigh only 350 to 450 g/m²
- Careful craftsmanship: precisely worked borders, tightly woven loops, high-quality hems
- Colour fastness: elaborate dyeing processes keep the colours fresh over many washes
- Absorbency: high-quality terry structures absorb moisture particularly quickly
- Durability: premium towels often last ten years and longer

Materials – what are premium towels made from?
Egyptian Giza cotton
The top class among cottons. Giza cotton from the Nile delta has particularly long fibres (extra long-staple), which ensure a unique volume, high absorbency and a silky feel. Premium brands such as Abyss & Habidecor rely exclusively on this quality.
Organic cotton
Cotton from certified organic cultivation is an important choice for environmentally conscious buyers. The fibre structure is comparable with conventional cotton, but the ecological footprint is considerably better.
Terry structures
The typical loop structure of towels determines absorbency and volume. Velour terry has sheared loops and looks particularly smooth and refined. Classic terry with unsheared loops is more absorbent and fluffier. Many premium towels combine both structures – velour on the outside, classic terry inside.
Which size do I need?
A recommendation for the basic set per person:
- 2 to 3 Shower Towels for everyday use after showering
- 3 to 4 Hand Towels for hands and face in the bathroom
- 1 to 2 Bath Towels for special occasions or the comfort of a bath
- 2 to 3 guest towels for the guest area
- 2 wash mitts for skincare
In a two-person household, the requirement multiplies accordingly. Use our free fabric samples to test the feel before buying – this is especially worthwhile for larger orders.
Caring for your towels
Premium towels reveal their full softness and absorbency only after the first few washes – a good sign of high-quality craftsmanship. With the right care, that quality lasts for years:
- wash before first use, ideally at 60 °C
- wash regularly at 40 to 60 °C – higher temperatures ensure greater hygiene
- no fabric softener – it forms a film over the loops and considerably reduces absorbency
- detergent without optical brighteners for coloured towels
- tumble dry on a medium setting – this makes the loops especially fluffy
- alternatively, let them air dry, then briefly fluff them up in the tumble dryer at the end
- do not overload – towels need space to clean properly
Important: The most common mistake in towel care is the use of fabric softener. What sounds like added comfort actually harms the towel – the loops become clogged and the towel loses its absorbency. Consistently avoid it.

Frequently asked questions about towels
What is Giza cotton and why is it so special?
Giza cotton comes from the Nile Delta in Egypt and is among the finest cottons in the world. It has particularly long fibres (extra long-staple), which provide unique volume, high absorbency and a silky feel. Premium brands such as Abyss & Habidecor rely exclusively on this quality.
What weight (g/m²) should a good towel have?
Premium towels usually have a weight of 500 to 700 g/m². Standard products often lie at only 350 to 450 g/m². A higher weight means more volume, greater absorbency and a longer lifespan. At very high weights (over 700 g/m²), however, the towels become heavier and take longer to dry.
How do I care for premium towels correctly?
Wash at 40 to 60 °C, without fabric softener. The most common care mistake is the use of fabric softener – it forms a film over the loops and considerably reduces absorbency. Consistently avoid it. Tumble dry on a medium setting; this makes the loops especially fluffy.
Why isn't my towel absorbent?
The most common reason is the use of fabric softener. It forms a film over the loops and blocks absorbency. Optical brighteners in detergents can also have this effect. Solution: wash the towel several times without fabric softener, possibly with a little vinegar in the wash. For new towels: these often need to be washed two to three times before they develop their full absorbency.
Which sizes do I need?
Per person we recommend 2 to 3 Shower Towels (about 70 × 140 cm), 3 to 4 Hand Towels in standard size (50 × 100 cm), 1 to 2 Bath Towels (about 100 × 150 cm) and 2 to 3 guest towels (30 × 50 cm) for the guest area. Plus wash mitts and face cloths as needed.
How long do premium towels last?
With good care, premium towels last ten years and longer. Compared with standard products, which often fray or lose absorbency after just two to three years, that is a considerable difference. Calculated over their lifespan, high-quality towels are therefore often more economical.
Can I get fabric samples before buying?
Yes, very gladly. We offer free fabric samples so that you can take your time to feel and compare the fabrics of various brands. This is especially worthwhile for larger orders or when kitting out for the first time. Simply get in touch with us.
Which brands of towels do you carry?
In our range you will find towels from Abyss & Habidecor (Portuguese luxury with Giza cotton), Schlossberg (Swiss elegance), Weseta Switzerland (sustainable Swiss textile artistry), Boss Home (modern luxury), Kenzo Maison (floral Parisian designs) and Lacoste Home (sporty French chic).
