Beautiful true eggplant splash of color. I ordered another set in sage and another in mustard. I am pleased with all three sets. They are alot longer than I thought which is a good thing. Each set comes with a solid color dish cloth which always comes in handy. I plan on hanging one of each color together on my stoves handle because I like bright colors and these will match my Crayola curtains perfectly. Towels are well made and should last a long long time hopefully!
