Animal Stack Tea Towel

Cotton-linen tea towel, 43cm x 65cm

For anyone who loves South Africa's wildlife, here is a tower of African animals, each one balanced on the back of the next and drawn in fine, sketch-style detail. It is made by Hats Off, a Cape Town brand, and is handmade locally in South Africa from a cotton and linen blend.

Two Colourways, Two Animal Towers

Olive

A giraffe tops the stack, standing on a warthog, a lion, a hippo and, at the base, a rhino. Look closer and you will spot an owl, a porcupine and a dung beetle with its ball.

Blue

A secretary bird perches on an antelope, which stands on a zebra, a cheetah and a big elephant at the bottom. A monkey hangs from the cheetah's tail, and a pangolin wanders past the elephant's feet.

From Hats Off, Cape Town

Hats Off started out in 2002 with one simple, stylish straw peak that soon found its way into boutiques, lodges and golf courses around South Africa. That success let the team set up a dedicated handcraft workshop in Cape Town, and the range has since grown into handmade collections with an African flair, from hats and bags to kitchen linen like this tea towel.
