This soft, durable towel is printed with an original GIrls Can Tell tea design. It will be the perfect gift for your favorite hostess, as a housewarming gift, wedding present or just for fun in your own kitchen. The term "high tea" is often a misnomer - most people refer to afternoon tea as high tea because they think it sounds regal and lofty, when in all actuality, high tea, or "meat tea" is dinner. High tea, at least in Britain, tends to be on the heavier side. American hotels and tea rooms, on the other hand, continue to misunderstand and offer tidbits of fancy pastries and cakes on delicate china when they offer a "high tea." Afternoon tea (because it was usually taken in the late afternoon) is also called "low tea" because it was usually taken in a sitting room or withdrawing room where low tables (like a coffee table) were placed near sofas or chairs generally in a large withdrawing room. Mind all of this information when serving tea in your own home, or throw caution to the wind and entertain your guests in any manner you'd like. Either way, tea is lovely, and this set of two hand printed floursack tea towels is sure to pretty up the occasion. These towels are not only infinitely useful, but they are machine washable as well, and only get softer with normal washing and wearing. This towel is part of the Girls Can Tell line of homewares + gifts, and features the original diagram illustrations of Philadelphia based illustrator Sara Selepouchin.
