Here’s a look at Antiochia Home Linens, the first retail shop to open up in the North Building of the Hine Project, at 760 C Street, SE. The outlet has been a part of the weekend Flea Market at Eastern Market for the past 8 years.
Owner Berna Rodman says, “While the Turkish towels will always be our specialty, I am beyond excited to expand our product line; including bedding, blankets, kitchen textiles, home decor, and more.
Our towels are handwoven in traditional looms in the well-known textile town Denizli in Turkey. We are proud to partner with several women foundations in Turkey who support women’s efforts to be economically independent and to improve the quality of their lives in urban and rural communities.” For more, see here: http://bit.ly/2zb3WUH
