Good quality soft and absorbent
“Delighted with these towels. I have washed them ready for use, they feel soft and absorbent. Have been disappointed recently with other brands of Turkish cotton towels, so decided to go back to Egyptian cotton and reliable Christy brand.”

Renaissance Egyptian Cotton TowelsStylish elegance
“Bought this duvet set for my guest bedroom as I wanted family and friends to have a little bit of luxury when they come to stay. It is simple but that is it's plus point and it goes beautifully with the Christy throw and cushion covers I also bought. The quality is fantastic. Really pleased with it.”

Beaumont Duvet SetJust Gorgeous !!
“Previously, 26 years ago, I bought Christy's towels from Debenhams, and they have lasted all these years. They all needed replacing, so I bought the Luxe Turkish Towels. This time I bought the Bath Sheets, Bath Towels and Face Towels, and I absolutely love the colour and feel , they're just gorgeous! I'm so happy with my towels. I would love it if Christy's also made hair towels or bath mitts to use in the shower.”

A riot in print and colour.In a world where towels were only in white, Christy leads the way with a fresh palette possible through new dye innovations to present colourful choices.
Weaving towels in the War.Shortly after the Christy mills closed during the war, a national shortage of towels paved the way for workers to return, and production moved at pace.
The great Centenary boom.The epitome of post-war glamour, international British model Barbara Goalen poses in an iconic series of photos, swathed in towels at Christy's Fairfield Mill.
Embracing the spirit of the 60s.Luxury items like Christy towels settled further into a role based on 'desired, not required' with bold patterns and designs that reimagined home textiles.
Weaving threads of change.Christy chooses Pierre Cardin to launch a new Polyester/Vincel blend to the market, developed in-house as the next generation of sheeting material.
A match made in heaven.Christy has made the Wimbledon Championships towels since 1988, proudly designing a new towel every year and becoming part of the fabric of the competition along the way.
Shaping a new millennia. Christy launches a new bed linen collection to match our luxury towel ranges, with high thread counts, intricate embroidery, and beautifully woven designs.
