About these colors
What are the Jacaranda colors?
Jacaranda is the May color story in the Riviera Color Calendar: purple, violet, periwinkle and sky blue. Every late spring the jacaranda trees turn Santa Barbara's streets purple. It's the city's own color for a few weeks, and it's a lovely, unexpected towel color.
What is in the Jacaranda set?
- Essential Turkish Towel in Purple
- LOVE from Santa Barbara Beach Towels in Pink/Purple
- Biarritz Turkish Towel in Sky Blue

How to style purple, violet, periwinkle and sky blue
Purple with sky blue is softer than purple with pink. Try a purple towel with a periwinkle or light blue one in a white bathroom, or a purple towel on a navy lounge chair by the pool.
Why Riviera Turkish towels
Riviera towels are 100% Turkish cotton, woven in Buldan and Denizli, Turkey, yarn-dyed for color that lasts, pre-washed for softness and finished with hand-tied tassels. They are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified (no. 309234). Everything shown here is in stock at our shop at 17 W. Gutierrez St. in downtown Santa Barbara, and ships from there.
