Le Révolution Guest Towel (Set of 16)

The same cockade emblem that appears on the La Révolution dinner napkin is here scaled and placed for a guest towel format: the tricolor rosette at the corner, the twin Republican inscriptions on the parchment medallion, the key at the center. In the smaller, more intimate context of a hand towel, the device takes on a different quality — less ceremonial than conversational, the kind of detail a guest notices while drying their hands and carries with them from the powder room.

The cockade was the first truly mass-produced symbol of the French Revolution: manufactured in silk, wool, and paper across Paris within weeks of its adoption, sold at market stalls, worn by citizens of every degree. On a guest towel in a powder room or bathroom, the same emblem makes the same kind of quiet declaration it was always designed to make — a small assertion that the occasion and the space have been considered.

Part of La Révolution. Soft three-ply tissue, guest-towel size. Set of 16. Pairs with the rest of the À Table! collection.
