The Almonda collection, with a herringbone border, represents the Portuguese textile tradition, a timeless classic. For decades it was the Companhia de Torres Novas' best-selling design, and a cherished symbol by the industry. Its name originates from the Almonda River, a tributary of the Tagus, born in the Serra de Aire, about 5km from the town of Torres Novas, which used to flow directly through the original Torres Novas National Spinning and Textile Company. Made of high quality cotton, with a 500 GSM weight and solid confection, the Almonda towels offer excellent absorption capacity and maximum durability. To complement your towel set, we also have a 755 GSM bath mat available of the mathching colour.
