Giving towels as a gift: what you should keep in mind

Towels make a great gift and are especially popular within families. They are also a wonderful present for friends, for example as part of a wellness package. To ensure your idea is well received, here are a few tips.
Giving towels as a gift: best to coordinate first
Just because you like a towel design does not automatically mean that your friends or family will like it or that it will fit their bathroom. Colour schemes in particular play an important role when choosing towels, but the size of the terry items also needs to be considered: someone who already owns many bath towels may not need another one right now—and someone who never uses washcloths but prefers wash mitts may appreciate those instead.
Preferences also vary when it comes to material and texture, which you can easily ask about in advance. If you want to give towels as a gift, don’t hesitate to check first. This way, the towels will actually be used and not just taken out when you visit.

Popular as a set
A single towel is a nice gift, but unless specifically requested, it really comes into its own when combined with something else: consider pairing it with a pleasantly scented shower gel or a beautiful soap that the recipient might like. Combined with a scented candle or a matching bathrobe—depending on your budget—towels become an eye-catching gift that will be remembered fondly.
Alternatively, you can choose a set, for example a guest towel, hand towel, and bath towel from the same collection. Within a set, you can also mix and match patterns or colours. If you like bold designs, our SUPERWUSCHEL or ELEMENTS collections are ideal as gifts. For more elaborate mix-and-match combinations, PAISLEY is an excellent choice. If you’re looking for a basic towel set, take a look at our multi-piece towel sets, available in many different combinations and colours.
