Description
Imported from Mexico, this hand-woven fabric made from 100% agave fiber, is an ancient answer to modern skin care.
When soaked in water, its natural fibers expand and the weave tightens. Pleasingly abrasive, it restores and stimulates the skin to a smooth invigorating freshness. Long lasting, quick drying and better than a loofah, it resists mold, is machine washable, and useful in the kitchen as a mar-free utility cloth.
The ultimate agricultural staple, the agave has been venerated by Mesoamericans for over 10,000 years. From the hands of a native people and the heart of a sacred tradition, the value of the ayate will endure.
