Towel rings feature a round design. They differ from towel hook and towel holder designs because they typically hold smaller hand towels or washcloths instead of large bath towels. Towel rings often install next to the sink or near wall mirrors for added convenience while washing your hands. HOMEnhancements offers modern, round towel rings in either a matte black or satin nickel color finish. Towel holders feature a larger, linear design to hold larger towels, like bath towels. They typically install next to the shower or bathtub for easy towel access. HOMEnhancements offers 24-inch towel bars in matte black or satin nickel.
