About This Design

Saint John Portuguese Festa Neighbour Tea Towel

Saint John Portuguese Festa Neighbour Tea Towel

The Saint John Festa in Porto, (Festa de São João) Portugal, is a celebration that combines religion, paganism, tradition, culture, and a profound sense of community. It's all about getting together and having fun. The festival's unique customs, historical significance, and lively atmosphere make it a must-experience event for anyone visiting Porto. If you find yourself in this Portuguese city in late June, join the locals in their joyous celebration. You will feel very welcome. There are many traditions to observe but one is to decorate the streets and windows. Another is eating grilled sardines, another is hitting people, even strangers, on the head with a hammer that makes a peculiar sound. And another is to buy basil. This illustration is part of a collection of four drawings that show four neighbours at the window, men and women of various ages, and refer to these traditions. The tiles adorn the wall of this house and in some of the illustrations, clothes are hung out to dry below windows. São João is celebrated on the 24th of June, with the night of the 23rd to the 24th being spent on the street in great excitement that involves the entire city. This illustration is ideal to keep as a souvenir of the Saint John Street Festival if you visit Porto in June. You can also send/offer it to a Portuguese friend, a relative, a Portuguese American, someone of Portuguese descent, or someone who appreciates Portuguese traditions and culture.

I was delighted with the beautiful tea towels, the design looked really lovely. I adore garden ponds and these towels and other products I ordered with the same design will bring me so much pleasure. My garden is too small for a real pond. If you love ponds and wildlife this design is for you!

They absorb so well and wash up really nicely not losing their colour at all. They are expensive but in my opinion they are well worth the money. Yes they turned out perfectly to match my new kitchen
