What is our "Ant" dishcloth?

An exceptional dishcloth that connects art and everyday life in a completely new way. Created in an exclusive collaboration between Lotao and Berlin screen printing artist Friederike Bérat, this cloth features an oversized ant – designed by Iranian curator Amirali Ghasemi. Hand-sewn from upcycled linen, crafted with fascinating iris printing, and part of a limited edition where no two pieces are alike. Each cloth is an absolute one-of-a-kind.

Why you will love this dishcloth

Each piece is unique
The iris printing technique creates individual color variations and irregularities in the color scheme with each print. No two cloths are identical. Occasional color specks and slight deviations are not flaws, but part of the individual charm – that's precisely what makes each piece a true work of art.

Art by Friederike Bérat & Amirali Ghasemi
Friederike Bérat's artworks adorn walls, galleries, and now your kitchen. The oversized ant was designed in collaboration with Iranian curator Amirali Ghasemi. The idea behind it: "Ants are clever animals who know where the good stuff is. Follow the ants, and you'll find the best fruits! Our ant brings the Lotao idea to the city, as it comes to Berlin to find the best grain of rice."

Sustainable from upcycled linen
The cloths are made from high-quality linen sourced from upcycled materials – an active contribution to environmental protection. The material composition varies from piece to piece, which makes each cloth additionally unique.

Hand-sewn in Berlin
Each dishcloth is hand-sewn in Berlin using regional craftsmanship. No mass production, no assembly line goods – genuine handcrafted work with attention to detail.

XXL size for real utility
Measuring approx. 60x80 cm, the dishcloth is generously sized. Large enough for daily use in the kitchen, beautiful enough to serve as a decorative element.
