Willow Beach Towel

A pure cotton beach towel with a checkerboard design.

Inspired by an antique handloom weaving design, the Willow Weave has been a long-standing Mungo favourite. Now we’ve taken the design to new heights, introducing three bold and brilliant beach colours: Jellyfish, Urchin and Sea Star.

The look

The design of the Willow Weave is based on a 17th-century hand weaving pattern. Tried, tested and tweaked by our Master Weaver, Stu, and reimagined into something contemporary for our looms.

The Willow Weave’s characteristic checkerboard is created by an overshot technique, where the weft threads ‘float’ above the warp for a uniquely textural and decorative effect.

The feel

Light. Lofty. Soft to the skin.
With a slightly textured touch created by the weft floats.

The fibre

Woven from 100% locally sourced cotton.

The finesse

Designed by a Master, brought to life on our looms.

Classic yet contemporary. And woven to last.
