This distinctive Oxford map tea towel features a detailed vintage-style map of Oxford and its surrounding countryside. Roads, rivers, villages, and green spaces are carefully laid out to reflect the historic geography of one of Britain’s most famous cities, celebrated worldwide for learning, culture, and tradition.
Inspired by classic British cartography, the design highlights Oxford as a connected place – from the city centre and colleges to nearby towns and landscapes. Fine linework, muted heritage tones, and layered detail give the map both visual depth and timeless appeal, making it as engaging to study as it is practical to use.
Both decorative and functional, this Oxford map tea towel is ideal for kitchens, studies, or studios. It makes a thoughtful gift for Oxford residents, students, alumni, walkers, cyclists, or anyone with a personal connection to the city and its surroundings.
Printed on 100% cotton and handmade in Britain by our small family business, each tea towel is finished to be durable for everyday use while preserving the clarity of the original map artwork.
