Zoo Animals Baby Hand Towel

The most-reached-for size — large enough to dry hands and face, compact enough to hang by the bath or tuck into a changing bag. Woven in Japan from 100% cotton in a triple gauze construction, the weave is airy and open, drawing moisture away quickly while remaining gentle against a newborn's skin. Scattered across the cream ground, small zoo animals make their way through the cloth — giraffes, elephants, pandas, lions — with the words "Going to the Zoo" appearing in a hand-drawn script.

Kontex towels are woven at unhurried speeds on traditional looms, a process that draws out the natural softness of the yarn without mechanical stress. The result is a towel that is lightweight, highly absorbent, and fast-drying — and grows softer with every wash.

ABOUT the MAKER

Kontex

Kontex has been weaving towels in Japan since 1923, on traditional looms run at deliberately slow speeds — a process that draws out the natural softness of the cotton yarn without mechanical stress. The result is a cloth that feels closer to gauze than terry: lightweight, airy, and extraordinarily gentle against skin. For a newborn, that quality matters. Kontex's triple gauze construction is soft enough for the most delicate skin, highly absorbent, and fast-drying — and grows softer with every wash. At Tessuti we carry Kontex in the zoo animal print: small hand-drawn creatures scattered across a cream ground, available as a bath towel and wash cloth.
