Kotoia Espelette Terre Cuite

A hand towel paying homage to Espelette

The Kotoia Espelette hand towel celebrates one of the most iconic villages in the Inner Basque Country. Its illustration depicts a traditional Basque house, recognizable by its red half-timbering, accompanied by chili peppers hanging to dry on the facade—a true hallmark of the village. Every detail evokes the cultural roots, craftsmanship, and simplicity of the landscapes of the Inner Basque Country. This motif, both refined and expressive, highlights the local architecture and Espelette’s strong identity in a sincere and timeless way. The inscription “Capitale du piment” underscores this iconic connection and elegantly affirms the village’s cultural heritage.
