Lucienne Day Too Many Cooks Tea Towel

$25.00

Lucienne Day is Britain's most distinguished textile designer of the 20th Century. Her work is recognised through a multitude of awards and is an essential part of museums worldwide.

The Lucienne Day tea towel designs, originally launched in 1959, encapsulate the sensitive, organic and progressive talent of one of Britain's true and lasting creative spirits.

Though not undermining the functionality and everyday value, the Lucienne Day tea towel works as a stand-alone artwork, as well as a household tool.

100% Linen and Made in Ireland.
