“Le Carré” washable paper towel – POYA by Corinne Karnstädt by Les Paillettes Vertes

“Le Carré” is a highly absorbent, soft, reusable and eco-friendly terry towel.

For absorbing liquids, cleaning the kitchen or bathroom, sponging your table, polishingwindows, washing your children’s hands or wiping the dog’s paws, “Le Carré” is ultra-versatile. Highly absorbent, it’s pleasantly soft and lint-free.

When the need arises, simply run it through the washing machine or dishwasher (up to 95°C!). To revive its color, bathe it in a warm solution of sodium percarbonate.

As you can see, “Le Carré” can be used again, and again, and again! It’ll last for months , and when it’s too worn, simply compost it.

Made from 100% natural fibers (70% wood cellulose / 30% cotton), “Le Carré” is perfectly biodegradable and even compostable! In fact, it decomposes in your soil or compost in 24 weeks.

This new round Poya is made frompaper cut by artist Corinne Karnstädt. A native of the Pays d’En-Haut region, she practises the art of paper-cutting in her beautiful workshop in Château d’Oex.

About us…

Corinne Karnstädt – K’Creations

Originally from Château d’Oex, Corinne Karnstädt grew up on the shores of Lake Geneva and returned to the Pays d’En-Haut with her family, where she turned her attention to the art of paper decoupage.

Self-taught, she is passionate about this evergreen art form, which is part of the living traditions of the canton of Vaud. In her beautiful workshop in Château d’Oex, Corinne tells stories, cutter in hand, and creates incredible works of paper lace. Her cut-outs are like paintings, transposed onto clocks, lamps, cards and announcements, in miniature or monumental format, like a wrought-iron gate!

We’re delighted to present the fruit of this new collaboration.
