We’ve featured so many tea towels over the years that I expect all our readers dry their dishes with something interesting or stylish, but until I saw these Tube Tea Towels I still wasn’t convinced I would buy a tea towel as a gift.
There is a choice of three tea towel, each with a classic work of vintage typography; Practically Perfect in Everywhere (a quote from Mary Poppins), Votes for Women (the iconic Suffragette poster) and the classic eye test chart. The towels are interesting in their own right, but selling them in a cardboard tubes confers work of art status on them and I think makes them much more acceptable as a present.
Present Provider has all three designs, priced £7.95 each.
