This design is based on the biblical Seven Species - the original fruits and grains (Deut 8. 8) -- figs, grapes, barley, olives, pomegranates, dates and wheat.
Long lasting, practical and gorgeous, these hand screen-printed 100% linen tea towels will brighten up any kitchen and encourage drying up. Packaged in window faced envelope sleaves they are easy to post and make a really beautiful gift.
Barbara says" the Seven Species is one of my favourite design themes. It is my signature theme. I love the elemental quality of these basic products of Israel. To me, they represent fertility, abundance and beauty. There is also a timeless and ancient quality about these foods, yet they are also so contemporary".
