What Size Are Tea Towels?

Tea towels are a kitchen essential, used for drying dishes, wiping spills, polishing glassware and even decorative purposes. But when comparing tea towels, you might wonder – what size should they be?

Standard tea towel sizes

Tea towels come in a variety of sizes, but in the UK, the most common sizes are:

45 x 65cm – A compact and versatile size, ideal for everyday kitchen use.
50 x 70cm – A larger tea towel, offering more absorbency and coverage.

Most tea towels fall within this range, ensuring they are easy to handle, absorbent and practical for a variety of kitchen tasks.
